Right now BMH through our specialist is able to perform the kidney transplant successfully,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Adding: \u201c12 out of 23 patients who have received a kidney transplant service were attended by our specialists; this is a huge achievement that has been achieved within a short period\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the facility has also installed a state-of-the-art Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) machine for gallstones and kidney stones treatment.<\/p>\n<p>The ESWL uses shock waves to break down stones, with the surgeon using a machine called a lithotripter to aim sound waves directly at the stones through the body.<\/p>\n<p>He said the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is a nonsurgical alternative for the treatment of kidney, gallbladder or liver stones, which are common cases in central regions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does not harm muscle, bone, or skin. After the treatment, a person should pass the stone particles through urination,\u201d he said, assuring of the facility\u2019s commitment to keep issuing better services.<\/p>\n<p>Other services that the facility has managed to introduce within six years include hips placement, cardiac and Orthopaedic surgeons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoreover, we have been allocated 2bn\/- for construction of Radiotherapy facility that will reduce the congestion at the Dar es Salaam based Ocean Road Cancer Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the BMH attends an average of 600-700 outpatients and around 250 inpatients; however the facility has a bed capacity of 400 patients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe modern technology we are using in attending patients plays a great role in reducing the number of those who are to be admitted, this also is a great achievement,\u201d said the BMH boss noting that the government has invested a total of 52bn\/- to improve service provision at the facility.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, the TSN Managing Editor Tuma Abdallah assured the BMH delegation of the company\u2019s willingness to partner with the Dodoma based specialized health facility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTSN is impressed with the achievement attained by MBH. We are ready to work together in promoting the hospital\u2019s different services offered to the public,\u201d she vowed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
