Ceylinco Life donates High Flow Nasal Cannula equipment to Colombo South Teaching Hospital

Ceylinco Life’s Lakshika Keragala, Consultant Surgeon Dr. Malith Nandasena, and medical staff of the hospital.

Ceylinco Life recently donated High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) equipment to the Colombo South Teaching Hospital at Kalubowila, responding to an urgent need to enhance the non-invasive ventilator facilities for patients with severe hypoxic respiratory failure.

The HFNC equipment donated by the company will be used at the four-bed Surgical High Dependency Unit (HDU) previously donated by Ceylinco Life to Ward 24 of the hospital.

The High Flow Nasal Cannula is used by the medical team to bridge patients being weaned from invasive ventilation.

Ceylinco Life has built, equipped and donated High Dependency Units to the Colombo South Teaching Hospital, Kalubowila, the National Hospital, Colombo, the Lady Ridgeway Children’s Hospital and the Jaffna Teaching Hospital.
