Iron Swords Emergency Medical Equipment
About the project
In the wake of the recent brutal Hamas attack, we have launched the ISEME project to acquire and supply life-saving, cutting-edge essential medical equipment to emergency medical teams in dire need.
While our hospitals boast advanced diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities, our field-level medical teams lack access to such critical resources. They urgently require point-of-care medical devices to effectively perform rapid triage and manage multiple casualties.

LIFE SAVING MEDICAL KITS DEPLOYED

On November 2nd, our unit received a wounded soldier. Both his legs were amputated and he suffered from extensive burns. The first responder team performed coniotomy (a surgical procedure to secure the airway excess). When the soldier arrived at our field hospital, right outside the fighting zone, we identified the coniotomy tube was dangerously misplaced into a false tract outside of the trachea (main airway) which could have caused his immediate death at any moment. We removed the coniotomy tube and performed a successful airway intubation using the McGrath MAC Video laryngoscope, provided to us by the Iron Sword Emergency Medical Equipment-ISEME project. Thank you so much for helping us save this soldiers life by providing us with this amazing device
