MTRH Selected as First SIGN Spine Location

SIGN Fracture Care has selected MTRH as the first location for the new SIGN Spine program to address spine trauma in low- and middle-income countries. This will include a three-year academic trial model to thoroughly evaluate and validate the concepts.

The partnership will teach optimal surgical care, provide ongoing mentoring and support for surgeons and supply the implants needed for surgery at no charge to the patient.

Members of the team supporting the SIGN Spine Program include (from left) Drs. E. Muteti, G. Ngetich, M. Coscia, MTRH CEO W.K. Aruasa, L.K. Lelei, J. Kisorio, G. Wasike, A. Gardner, and H. Odhiambo Oloo.
