Equipment is from the old Soviet Union era, most of it doesn't work at all, and sadly, in critical life-threatening situations, lives are most often lost due to the absence of any medical instruments. At the top of the list of needs are: Laryngoscopes, ecg equipment, defibrillators, optical equipment, any ENT instruments, CPR training mannequins, and orthopaedic tools and hardware, such as nails, hip joints, etc. I received a particularly emotional plea for these items from the head surgeon of the emergency medical hospital.
