RMC Upgrades Newborn Care with Cutting-Edge Intubation System

Newborns at Regional Medical Center in Manchester now have access to enhanced life-saving technology thanks to a $6,180.48 donation from the RMC Auxiliary. The funds were used to purchase a NeoView+ Video Intubation System for the OB & Family Health Department.

In neonatal resuscitation, ventilation is the most critical step for a struggling infant. The NeoView+ Video Intubation System provides healthcare providers with high-definition, real-time visuals of delicate neonatal airways, allowing for safer, faster and more effective intubations in vulnerable newborns.

" Our OB team must be prepared for any delivery, regardless of gestational age," shared Angie Strum, OB & Family Health Manager. "This state-of-the-art system ensures our team has the most advanced technology ready to care for our smallest patients. We are incredibly grateful to the Auxiliary for their continued support and dedication to the health of our community's families."
