Neonatal Care Equipment for Vilnius City Clinical Hospital
When a baby is born, the world seems to pause. Parents hold their breath, waiting for that first tiny sound — a newborn’s cry. But some babies cannot take that breath on their own. They arrive too early, too fragile, and from their very first seconds, their survival depends on the hands of doctors and the medical equipment that helps them breathe.
At Vilnius City Clinical Hospital, one of the largest medical institutions in the capital, around 1,800 babies are born each year. About 4% of them are premature, and many require immediate treatment in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Here, dedicated doctors and nurses work around the clock, fighting for every tiny heartbeat.
Why Help Is Needed Now
The NICU urgently needs modern, reliable equipment to ensure proper breathing support and temperature regulation for newborns. The Fenix Charity Fund, together with its partners, is launching a mission to donate two essential, life-saving devices:
-
Infant Warmer (Atom Medical, Japan)
A state-of-the-art neonatal resuscitation and warming table that stabilizes body temperature, provides immediate access during critical procedures, and ensures a safe environment during the baby’s most vulnerable moments. -
Medin NC3 with Wilamed AIRcon Humidifier (Medin Medical, Germany)
A gentle, non-invasive respiratory therapy system that helps premature babies breathe more easily, precisely controls oxygen levels, and maintains continuous positive airway pressure in the lungs.
The hospital’s current equipment is outdated and limited in functionality. These new devices will dramatically improve care quality, allowing medical teams to respond faster, safer, and with greater precision — giving fragile newborns a real chance not only to survive, but to grow and flourish.
Your Support Can Change a Life
This is more than a medical upgrade.
It is a chance to see a first smile.
To hear a first cry.
To hold a tiny hand that might not have survived without your help.
We invite you to join this €53,000 mission to equip Vilnius City Clinical Hospital with the tools that bring life into the world.
Your support is life itself — it begins with one breath.
