1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 This is a combined report on RWANDA LEGACY OF HOPE / OPERATION HERNIA Mission

to Rwanda from March 16-25, 2018. This report will summarise the activities of the 3

specialties in the Team: Hernia Training, ENT and Neurosurgery.

1.2 Detailed Specialty Report

The detailed Specialty reports will be attached to this combined report as Annexes A, B, and

C.

1.3 The RWANDA LEGACY OF HOPE and OP HERNIA Partnership has served the people of

RWANDA in the health sector for 6 years. We are thankful and honoured to be given the

privilege to serve the people of RWANDA. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to

President Kagame for the welcome we have always received in the country. We would also

like to thank Hon Diane Gashumba for her personal support and for the for the unparalleled

support that we receive from the Ministry of Health. In the Acknowledgement section I will

list all the individuals who have helped us achieve the successes we have recorded.

2. Achievements Over Past 6 Years

The health sector of RLOH has celebrated the following successes since our first visit in

2012.

2.1. Hospitals Visited: We have worked in the following 8 Hospitals: NYAMATA, Remera-

Rukoma, GAHINI, Kibogora, Kigeme, Rwamagana, CHUK and now, SHYIRA Hospital on 48

occasions

2.2. Patient Numbers: We have offered essential, surgery to over 800 patients.

2.3. Volunteers: There have been over 100 volunteer episodes. Volunteers have come from

mainly the UK and GERMANY but also from Austria. Each of the volunteers have funded

their flights to RWANDA. In the early years they also paid for accommodation and

subsistence. Since 2016 the Min of Health has magnanimously sorted out the logistics of our

stay in Kigali. We are extremely grateful. We have always been catered for in the districts

hospitals.

2.4. Surgical Specialties: Our early missions concentrated on Hernia Surgery. We have now

expanded our remit to meet the needs of the Rwandan people. Our later missions have

therefore included Plastic Surgery, Orthopaedics and ENT Surgery. This year has been

ground breaking. For the first time we have a Neurosurgical team. All these specialist teams

have worked at CHUK.

2.5. Provision of Hospital Equipment: RLOH has provided Rwandan Hospitals with

equipment worth over £200.000 (RWF 230 million). The equipment ranges from routine

Surgical instruments to theatre tables and air conditioners fitted in theatre. In 2016,

one theatre in Rwamagana was equipped as a training centre.

2.6. Training of Junior doctors: Training is now a major plank of RLOH mission. It builds

capacity for delivery of surgical services. We have trained local doctors in every district

hospital we have worked in. In 2016 we had our first specifically organised Hernia Course.

This comprised a series of lectures to provide a theoretical basis followed by intensive one

to one training in theatre. In 2017, we were invited by CHUCK to train their first-year

surgical residents in Hernia Surgery. 13 surgical residents were successfully trained.

We have followed that up with a similar course at SHYIRA Hospital on this mission. It is

hoped that we will return in 2019 to CHUK to train the next batch of surgical residents.

3. 2018 MISSIONS

Two missions have been scheduled for this year- March 2018 and September 2018. The

former has involved ENT, NEUROSURGICAL and GENERAL SURGICAL TEAMS. The September

mission will involve Plastic Surgery and Orthopaedic teams.

4. MARCH 2018 MISSION The just concluded March 2018 mission comprised 3 teams. CHUK welcomed one ENT

Consultant and a Neurosurgical team which included 1 Consultant Neurosurgeon, a

consultant Anaesthetist and a Neurosurgical senior Theatre nurse. The third team was a

hernia team that went to SHYIRA HOSPITAL. It is our first mission to northern RWANDA. The

team comprised 2 consultant Surgeons, a consultant Anaesthetist and a theatre nurse.

like to acknowledge the support we have had from the Ministry of Health with customs

clearance. This year’s equipment is worth £8919.71 (RWF 10, 211, 476.54). This comprised 6

sets of Hernia surgical Instruments, Neurosurgical Instruments, Anaesthetic drugs and

Anaesthetic equipment. I have attached the full list as Annex D

7. Accommodation, Food and Transport

The team had excellent accommodation. The team was very well looked after. The food was

of top quality and transportation was good. We would like to record our deepest gratitude

to The Government of Rwanda and to the Ministry of Health for the extremely generous

hospitality

7.1 SHYIRA HERNIA COURSE AT SHYIRA HOSPITAL I would like to commend the Director General of Shyira Hospital, Dr Theoneste

Rubanzabigwi, for organising a successful training course for both the Trainees and the

Trainers.

6 doctors were selected for training. 2 withdrew. 4 doctors were enlisted for the training

programme which consisted of the ff:-

1. Lectures on relevant aspects of Hernia Surgery ( 1 Day)

2. Intensive 5-day hands on practical training in theatre.

The published OPERATION HERNIA TRAINING FORMAT was used for the hands-on theatre

training. This has been used at CHUK in 2017 and has been used on two COSECSA Training

courses. At the end of the course the competency of the 4 trainees were assessed by the

Trainers using the Competency Assessment tools used by the Royal Colleges in the UK

8.0 Feedback from lectures

Feedback from the lectures was very good as shown in Fig 1.

Scores ranged from 76% to 91%

10. ASSESSMENT OF SURGICAL COMPETENCE OF TRAINEES BY TRAINERS

At the end of the 5 days of training, the competence of the trainees was assessed. The

assessment tools developed and employed by the UK Royal Surgical Colleges were adopted

for this training programme. The 4 trainees were assessed as follows: -

Certificates were awarded to the Trainees at a closing ceremony.

13. SUCCESSES

1. Training in Hernia Surgery: 4 doctors in district hospitals have been trained by

experienced Consultant surgeon Trainees to a high standard of competency. The majority

had no personal experience of hernia surgery as already documented. When they are well

established will reduce the number of referrals of groin hernias to CHUK

2. Training in Basic Surgical Skills: Knot tying

3. Service to Patients: 32 patients including 15 children have has surgical operations for which

they would have been referred to CHUK for surgery

4. Good Feedback: Very good feedback from Trainees regarding Hernia Lectures and Theatre

Training.

5. Improvement in Theatre Safety: The UK theatre nurse, Leah Thorne, introduced theatre

staff, to

5.1. Time and Theatre management

5.2. Theatre safety measures, which were adopted by theatre staff: -

WHO Safety Protocol

Instrument Counting.

14. CHALLENGES

1. Breakdown of Autoclave.

The theatre autoclave broke down during the training week. This undoubtedly hampered the

training of doctors. The industry of the theatre lead nurse enabled us to use a mini autoclave

for the rest of the week

2. Availability of Nurses

There are inadequate numbers of nurses on the wards, particularly, at night. This affects the

safety of patient in the postoperative period. This was worsened when ward nurses were

drafted to support theatre staff for the Training Programme.

15. RECOMMENDATIONS FROM HERNIA TEAM AT SHYIRA HOSPITAL

1. Further Training

Further training will improve competence levels. It is therefore proposed that a subsequent

course be organised for the trainees. Operation Hernia has provided pre-sterilised affordable

polypropylene mesh for further training. This will help upgrade their competence to level 5

competence.

2. To Increase Nursing Staff Numbers

3. Theatre Facilities: Air Pump should be introduced into Theatre. This will reduce the

constant use of Oxygen system which is expensive and potentially harmful to patients

undergoing general anaesthetic

4. Regular Maintenance of Autoclave. This will avoid the unfortunate breakdown which did

adversely affect the training.

5. Maintain the New Theatre standards: Theatre staff should maintain the new safety

measures they have learnt.

16. ENT SURGERY AT CHUK 16.1 Introduction

This is the second ENT RLOH Mission to CHUK. The mission was undertaken by Dr Kate

Heathcote, UK ENT Consultant Surgeon. We did not have on the mission dedicated ENT

Anaesthetist and Theatre nurse.

The full report is attached as Annex B. The reports will be provided to the local ENT team,

the head of Surgery and the CHUK Medical Director.

Dr Heathcote assessed the patients before their operations and has made some very

important observations which will help improve the CHUK ENT service.

A lot of very complex cases were performed. Several cases lasted several hours and the

team always left theatres very late. Apart from the complexity of the cases, there were

several other important factors which led to prolongation of theatre time.

16.2 Theatre Cases

No of cases: 10: Most Cases were complex Major

The magnitude of the work done in these ENT cases should not be assessed by the sheer

NUMBER of cases done. What should be considered is the complexity of cases and the

experience and skill of the surgeon. Dr Kaitesi’s departure has impacted the ENT

department significantly.

10. CSOM with

Cholesteatoma

Right Radical Mastoidectomy 1. Erosion of bone.

2. Facial Nerve exposed and

inflamed.

16.3 Crucial Observations and Recommendations from ENT 1. There is a lack of experience in the senior ENT staff at CHUK, this has been exacerbated by

the recent departure of their most experienced surgeon. The abilities of the senior doctors

naturally dictates the effectiveness of the department as a training centre for junior doctors

and medical students. As the University Hospital in the capital city, the capabilities of the

senior doctors is fundamental. Investment in their training should be of the highest

consideration.

2. There is a shortage of quality instruments, microscopes, lasers, and microdebriders required

for high quality, advanced ENT surgery.

3. The operating table is inadequate for long procedures

4. The intensive care unit is not experienced in the care of major head and neck cases.

5. Post operative care is sub-optimal. The supply of free tracheostomy tubes is minimal. The

patients have to buy their own intraoperative and post-operative medication and topical

drops/ointments. There is no service for speech rehabilitation with valves or servox devices

after laryngectomy.

6. The aim of a radical mastoidectomy is to get rid of the cholesteatoma disease that causes

destruction of local structures with a risk of facial palsy, hearing loss, vertigo, meningitis,

septicaemia and intracranial abscesses. Once the disease is cleared the resultant cavity

needs regular cleaning. I am not confident that this will occur.

7. There was a shortage of qualified anaesthetists.

8. There is no culture of using scrub nurses to assist surgeons. This would make the surgery

faster.

17. NEUROSURGERY AT CHUK

17.1 Introduction

We are very proud to record that this is the first Neurosurgery RLOH Mission to CHUK. The

mission was undertaken by Mr Sam Muquit, Consultant Neurosurgeon, Dr Lorenzo Dimpel,

Consultant Anaesthetist and Della Ball Senior Neurosurgery Theatre Sister.

The full report is attached as Annex C The reports will be provided to the local

Neurosurgical team, the head of Surgery and the CHUK Medical Director.

17.2 The Local Team and Their Huge Workload

The RLOH team worked with 2 CHUK Neurosurgeons, Dr Muneza and the recently appointed Dr

Hitimana. “The two neurosurgeons are highly skilled and provide the full spectrum of neurosurgical

procedures in adults as well as children”. They however have an impossible work load because they

serve the whole of Rwanda. They are therefore limited to operating on mostly emergency cases. This

has led to a mounting waiting list. Some patients have developed complications from their brain

pathology whilst waiting on this long waiting list. The RLOH Mission was therefore an invaluable

opportunity to help desperate patients with Brain pathology.

17.3 Intensive Care

Overall, the intensive care department provided an excellent level of post-operative care.

17.4 CASES

Like the ENT cases, numbers of cases were not great. This is because the Neurosurgical

cases, like ENT cases, were very complex. Given the complex nature of the cases each

operation took between 8 and 10 hours.

17.5 Total Number of Cases: 5

One case performed per day because of the duration of Operation

17.6 Crucial Observations and Recommendations from NEUROSURGICAL TEAM

1. Improvement In Pre-Visit Communication

Before the mission communication between myself and Dr Muneza was easy and clear. An

improvement for future mission may be to exchange scan images, allowing for more precise

planning of surgical time. A challenge to this is that patients carry ‘hard copies’ of their scans, which

are not available on a computer PACS system.

2. Improvement of Theatre Access

Easier daily access to theatre for the neurosurgical team in CHUK would help management of

emergency cases. This may result in fewer elective case cancellations.

3. Early surgery To Avoid Severe Complications

Early surgical treatment of neurosurgical conditions, before development of severe neurological

deficit will result in a better post-operative prognosis.

4. Better Anaesthetic Support.

Anaesthetic support for complex neurosurgical cases with consultant anaesthetist support would

reduce risks of complications during surgery.

5. Essential Neurosurgical Instruments

Availability of a second Mayfield head rest and microinstruments would make surgery safer and

more efficient. A second operating microscope would allow efficient concurrent running of two

neurosurgical theatres.

6. Improve Theatre Doors

15 | P a g e

Finally, a very simple recommendation: Installation of operating room doors which can be closed

may reduce the risk of post-operative infections.

18. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND GRATITUDE
