Eating disorder Center at Soroka
The document proposes establishing the Negev Center for Eating Disorders at Soroka Medical Center to treat the estimated 12,500 children and young adults in the Negev region of Israel suffering from eating disorders. Currently, there are no treatment services for eating disorders in the entire Negev region. The proposed center would provide both inpatient and outpatient care through a multidisciplinary team. It requests $5 million in funding, with a lead gift of $1.5 million allowing for the naming of the center.
The effect of rosuvastatin on incident pneumonia from CMAJ 2012
1) The study analyzed data from the JUPITER trial to examine if statin treatment with rosuvastatin reduces the incidence of pneumonia.
2) Among 17,802 participants followed for 1.9 years on average, pneumonia occurred in 214 participants taking rosuvastatin and 257 taking placebo, showing a modest reduction in pneumonia with rosuvastatin.
3) When analyzing events before cardiovascular problems, rosuvastatin was associated with a 19% reduced risk of pneumonia compared to placebo, supporting the hypothesis that statins may reduce pneumonia incidence.
Plantronics - Call Center - Comfort Infographic
Calls into your organization are longer and more
complex than ever before. And customers still
expect your customer service representatives
(CSRs) to remain fully focused on what they
have to say. But CSRs can’t do this if they are
physically uncomfortable.
With the Plantronics EncorePro Family
comfort isn’t a problem.
Plantronics - A World of Meetings Infographic
The document discusses the findings of a Plantronics survey on meetings. Some key findings include:
- People spend a significant amount of time in meetings each week, often without clear agendas or follow up actions. Technical difficulties also waste time.
- Over 60% of respondents reported being distracted by noises like children, pets or conversations during conference calls. Many heard interesting background noises.
- The survey found that meeting productivity could be improved by ensuring meetings have clear objectives, the right participants, and follow up actions assigned.
Seven Steps Towards a Mobile Collaboration Strategy
While most organizations have implemented component parts of a mobile collaboration strategy, many are not working together as cohesively as they could.
Here, Plantronics outlines a seven-step process for IT leaders to implement a sustainable mobile collaboration strategy.
Plantronics: Better Meetings - planning for success
A GUIDE TO ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER A MEETING.
At their best, meetings are productive, stimulating, and worthwhile—making them powerful team builders, motivators, and taskmasters. At their worst, however, they can be distracting, boring, and pointless—making them big time wasters.
It was no different here at Plantronics. So we asked ourselves a simple question: “How can we make meetings better?”
It’s time to build a better meeting!
Computer Assisted Diagnosis
Computer Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) helps radiologists analyze medical images faster and more accurately. CAD systems scan digital images from tests like mammograms and flag areas that could indicate potential diseases. CAD is especially useful for detecting tumors in mammograms, as it was developed using thousands of abnormal mammogram photos. Studies show CAD increases mammogram sensitivity and decreases false negatives. While CAD costs $50,000, it improves diagnosis and the quality of healthcare.
Biopsy Equipment
The Soroka Medical Center in Israel is seeking funds to purchase new breast biopsy equipment. The existing equipment at Soroka is outdated and has stopped working, forcing women in the Negev region to travel far from home for biopsies. New biopsy equipment would allow Soroka to perform over 200 biopsies annually, doubling its previous capacity. This would provide faster and more accurate diagnoses for women in the Negev to complement improved detection from recently acquired digital mammography. The new equipment would cost $200,000.

Soroka256 c tscanner
Soroka Medical Center needs a new 256-slice CT scanner to improve critical diagnostic capabilities. Soroka's current CT is overextended serving emergency medicine 24/7 and cannot properly serve other areas like cardiology and neurology that require advanced imaging. A new CT would allow faster and more accurate diagnoses to ultimately save lives at Soroka, the largest hospital in southern Israel serving over 1 million people.
Soroka laserurologysurgery
Kidney stones can cause severe pain and kidney damage if left untreated. Soroka Medical Center performs laser surgery to break up kidney stones, but their 12-year-old laser equipment is outdated and replacement parts are unavailable. New advanced laser equipment for kidney stone surgery costs $135,000 and is urgently needed so patients do not have to travel long distances for treatment. Soroka is a leading hospital in Israel that provides care for over 1 million people annually through emergency services, births, trauma care and community outreach programs.
Soroka Medical Center Endoscopy Center
The document discusses the need for a new Endoscopy Institute at Soroka Medical Center in Beer Sheva, Israel. The current gastroenterology facilities are inadequate to meet the needs of the growing population of over 1 million people. A new 500 square meter Endoscopy Institute is proposed to contain 4 examination rooms, 6 procedure rooms, recovery areas, and other facilities. The total cost is estimated at $2.5 million, with $1 million still needed from donations. The donor will have the opportunity to name the new Institute.
Soroka cancer center brochure
The document discusses the need for a comprehensive cancer center in the Negev region of Israel. Some key points:
- There is currently no comprehensive cancer center for the 1 million people living in the Negev, forcing many to travel over 200 miles for treatment.
- Cancer cases in the Negev have increased 300% in the past 20 years but care is scattered without a dedicated center.
- Soroka Medical Center is proposing to build a comprehensive cancer center on its campus to provide centralized care. The new four-floor facility would consolidate resources and double treatment space.
- The center aims to improve cancer outcomes in the Negev through research, specialized clinics, advanced technologies and a focus on patient well
Soroka New CT Scanner project description
Soroka Medical Center needs a new 256-slice CT scanner to improve critical diagnostic capabilities. Soroka's current CT is overextended serving emergency medicine 24/7 as well as other departments. A new CT would allow faster diagnoses for conditions like cardiac issues, strokes, and intestinal tumors, helping to save more lives. Soroka seeks $1.4 million in donations for the new CT and will provide infrastructure and staff to operate it.
Soroka Women and Children's Operating Rooms project brochure
The document discusses the Obstetrics and Gynecology Division and Department of Pediatric Surgery at Soroka Medical Center in Israel. The Obstetrics and Gynecology Division handles over 13,500 births annually and treats over 26,000 women. The new Women and Children's Surgery Complex will contain four operating rooms to serve both the Obstetrics and Gynecology Division and the Department of Pediatric Surgery. The Department of Pediatric Surgery performs around 1,700 surgeries annually and specializes in minimally invasive and oncology procedures for infants to 18-year-olds. The new complex will improve efficiency and convenience for patients and staff.
Soroka neonatal care center project brochure
The document discusses plans to construct a new Neonatal Care Center at Soroka Medical Center in Israel. The current neonatal unit is outdated and unprotected from missile attacks. The new center will serve over 1,000 babies born each month in the Negev region. It will have protected facilities to care for premature infants and those requiring intensive or special care. The expansion is needed due to the large birth rate in the area and limitations of the existing space.
Soroka Emergency Medical Operating Rooms project brochure
Soroka Medical Center in Israel operates under threat of attack and requires additional fortified operating rooms. During a recent war in Gaza, Soroka cared for over 600 wounded using outdated operating rooms not meant for emergency situations. They now plan to build 5 new fortified operating rooms for $7.5 million to allow them to safely treat patients during conflicts or attacks. Donations can be made to name individual operating rooms.
