Did You Know? 🤔 Certain individuals are at a higher risk of tuberculosis (TB), including: ✔️ People over 70 or with chronic illnesses like diabetes or kidney disease ✔️ Those with a weakened immune system (HIV, cancer, or immunosuppressive drugs) ✔️ Healthcare workers & people living in high-risk environments (hospitals, shelters, or prisons) ✔️ Individuals recently immigrated from TB-prevalent areas How does TB spread? People with active TB in their lungs or larynx can release bacteria into the air when they cough, sneeze, speak, or even sing. These bacteria can linger for hours, putting others at risk. The good news? Once a person starts effective treatment, the risk of spreading TB drops significantly—usually within about two weeks! Since TB is airborne, good ventilation, UV germicidal lamps, and protective masks can help reduce its transmission.

We are pleased to announce that First Cardiology Consultants (FCC) in Lagos has successfully launched its Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) program using the Meril Myval transcatheter heart valve. Understanding Aortic Stenosis and Treatment Options Aortic stenosis is a condition characterized by the narrowing of the aortic valve, impeding blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body. Treatment options include: • Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR): A traditional open-heart surgery to replace the narrowed valve. • Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR): A minimally invasive procedure delivering a new valve via catheter, often through the femoral artery. Our Initiative with the Meril Myval The Meril Myval transcatheter heart valve has demonstrated comparable safety and effectiveness to leading devices in recent studies. While the Myval offers a more affordable option, the overall cost of TAVI procedures remains significant, limiting accessibility for many Nigerians. We are committed to exploring ways to reduce costs and improve accessibility, enabling more patients to benefit from this advanced, minimally invasive treatment. -Yemi Johnson, CEO.
