Nepal 1998

AYUDAMOS provided approximately $250,000 worth of medical supplies and English Medical Texts to the 2 major teaching hospitals of Kathmandu, Patan and Tribhuvan. The first Telemedicine Symposium in Nepal was held at Tribhuvan Teaching Hospital over 5 days.  Applications for countries with geographical barriers to health care delivery provided the focus of this project.  Likewise, laparoscopic surgery instructions were provided to the surgeons of Kathmandu. Of note was the fact that the first 2 mm diagnostic laparoscopy using local anesthesia was performed in Asia by the AYUDAMOS surgical team while in Nepal.
