MEDRIX Child Heart Surgeries Save Lives
MEDRIX Goals: Identifying Real Needs
Discovering Real Solutions Sharing Resources
Exchanging Knowledge Project Sustainability Offering Hope
How the program works Each surgery costs between $800 and
$2,400, with an average cost between $1,000 and $1,200.
Children and their families are selected by our partners in Vietnam.
The families are interviewed to determine needs.
The children are admitted to Huê Central Hospital where the surgeries
take place. Once the surgeries are completed, follow-up continues to ensure healthy
recovery.
Children’s heart disease is the most common
birth defect globally and 90% of the children born in developing countries have no access to the care they need. With
labored breathing and lack of energy, these
children are not able to attend school or run around and play like
other children. MEDRIX sponsors life-
saving heart surgery for disadvantaged children who desperately need it and can’t afford it. With
the help of our donors and partners in
Vietnam, we have successfully sponsored 59
heart surgeries to improve the lives of children in Vietnam.
