The Erding Clinic will buy the computer tomograph (CT) from the Free State of Bavaria. The CT will then be installed in the emergency room, which will be converted in this context.
The clinic sees an opportunity to optimize emergency care and internal processes. The whole thing is expected to cost around half a million euros, but the State only wants a transfer fee of 80,000 euros for the CT.. Corona also has pleasant long-term consequences: The Free State provided the CT in June 2020 for the treatment of Covid sufferers, at a bargain price. It cost over 300,000euros and was needed during the pandemic to be able to visualize the lung disease. For reasons of infection protection, the CT was not set up in the hospital at the time, but in a container at the hospital. The disadvantage: Patients who are lying down cannot be pushed into the tube and the patients can get to the container through the open air. In addition, more and more people are visiting the emergency rooms, most recently 25,000 a year.
