Cardiologists at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) are celebrating the successful completion of a ground-breaking procedure designed to re-open narrowed blood vessels in patients suffering from heart disease.
This surgical procedure, known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, is the first of its kind in the Western Region. Medical experts have pointed out that a significant number of cardiac arrests have resulted in fatalities because patients had to travel to Nairobi for the nearest surgical intervention.
