On October 19, 2021, a girl from the village of Stare Selo, Sarny district, Rivne region, was hospitalized at the children's department of the Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. Tatyana Grishkova, who was born on August 13, 2007. She has a congenital heart defect - a secondary atrial septal defect and dilatation of the right heart.
To eliminate this congenital heart defect, Tetiana needs endovascular closure of the atrial septal defect with a Figulla Flex II ASD occluder with a delivery system and a measuring balloon, which costs UAH 114,000.
Polina Pavlovna Gryshkova, the girl's mother, asked the Foundation to help her purchase expensive medical supplies. The Foundation started project «Saving Tatiana's heart depends on you!».
We posted information about the girl and all the necessary supporting documents on our website and Facebook page. https://heart-in-hand.in.ua/programs/poryatunok-serdechka-tetyani-zalezhit-vid-vas/
With a request to provide a charitable donation for the purchase of a Figulla Flex II ASD occluder with a delivery system and a measuring balloon for Tetiana, the Foundation turned to its regular and reliable partners - the of Vodafone Ukraine and received support. The necessary heart implant was purchased and transferred to the Heart Institute.
On October 20, 2021, at the State Institution «Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine», endovascular closure of the atrial septal defect with a cardiac implant - an occluder - was performed for Tetiana Hryshkova, and on October 22, the girl was discharged home in good mood and satisfactory condition.
