FIGHT COVID IASI – STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF HEALTH UNITS IN IASI COUNTY TO PREVENT AND COMBAT COVID-19

Strengthening the responsiveness and response capacity of the public health system in Iasi County in the context of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak by equipping health units with specialised protective equipment, medical devices and devices. The proposed project contributes to strengthening the response capacity to the public health crisis caused by the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus at regional and local level, limiting the spread of the virus and its extremely serious effects by ensuring the availability of medical devices and devices, as well as the provision of specialised protective equipment for medical personnel. The project contributes to the result indicator of LIOP“2S132 – Appropriate capacity for care and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection cases” because by equipping the 5 hospitals under the Iasi County Council with protective equipment (combinezons, protective gloves/surgical masks, etc.) and medical equipment (injectomates, infuzomates, ATI beds, portable ecograph doppler, pulse oximers and many others), according to Annexes 10 attached, which will be used directly to both prevent infection and treat COVID-19 infection, the care and treatment capacity of patients will be improved. The acquisition of protective equipment prevents and reduces the risk of infection of medical and administrative personnel and blocking the transmission of Covid 19 infection in the 5 subordinate hospitals. Developing the testing capacity essential to be able to respond to the COVID-19 crisis, increasing patient comfort and safety, by ensuring optimal conditions for medical investigations, treatment, and prevention of nosocomial infections, according to the rules in force will lead to an increase in the intervention capacity of the five medical units. Equipping with ultra-performance equipment reduces the diagnostic time of patients from an imaging and logistical point of view, being a real help in differentiating the diagnosis of Covid 19 from other non-pulmonary diseases. Correct diagnosis will contribute to the essential strategy of treatment for Covid 19 (single therapy versus multiple antivirals) contributing to the reduction of the period of admission of the patient, thus reducing the worsening of the disease and the occurrence of complications with increased mortality. In conclusion, the investment proposed through the project contributes to achieving the strategic target of increasing the management capacity, through the public medical system, of the emergency caused by the COVID-19 health crisis, by: — purchase of medical equipment and medical emergency equipment – purchase of protective materials and equipment, disinfectants, medicines, sanitary supplies, medical devices – increasing the success rate of patients treated in ITA – attracting
