IAF airlifts organs from Pune to Delhi, helps save three lives
Pune: A team of doctors from Army Hospital (Research and Referral) flew in on an Indian Air Force's Super Hercules aircraft on Friday night to collect and transport a liver and two kidneys from a 59-year-old brain-dead woman in Pune to New Delhi for transplantation, after her family generously consented to organ donation. The donor, mother of a serving soldier, was declared brain-dead at Command Hospital on on June 17. "The team retrieved a liver, two kidneys and two corneas in under four hours before taking off to Delhi, where the liver was transplanted into a civilian patient. The two kidneys were transplanted into two serving soldiers. The donor saved three lives," said a senior doctor from Command Hospital. A green air corridor was created for the aircraft to facilitate the airlift of live organs from Pune to Delhi. "Under the green air corridor protocol, the aircraft gets priority for take-off and landing. Besides, all ground clearances, including radars, get an alert in advance for the smooth flying of the aircraft," a senior IAF officer told TOI. "This humanitarian mission was enabled by seamless coordination between Armed Forces Medical Services and IAF, ensuring that the organs reached in time to save multiple lives. The noble act of the donor family stands as a testament to selfless sacrifice, even in the face of personal loss. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Over 40 and Struggling With Belly Fat?
