Russell Lee, project coordinator of Open Heart International, says this is an important area that needs focus on.
Over the years of bringing the Operation Open Heart into PNG, Lee observes gaps in this field which can help a lot if addressed.
To make his point, he elaborated that with a surgery such as an open heart case, high technical equipment are used.
But in PNG, where heat and humidity and power fluctuations are common, maintenance of these equipment is really important.
