Ibrahim Traoré refused to hand over road construction to foreign companies. Instead, he invested in equipment, empowered local engineers, and trained Burkinabè citizens to build their own country.
Now, Burkina Faso is pushing toward 5,000 km of paved roads every year with no foreign funding, just national commitment.
This is not dependency. This is self-reliance. This is nation-building.
Africa is watching.
This is called a HAEMODIALYSIS CATHETER.
It is for patients undergoing dialysis.
It is inserted into a patient's chest through the internal jugular vein.
The red port cannula is the arterial lumen that draws deoxygenated blood out of the patient's body and sends it to the dialysis machine for cleaning.
The blue cannula is the venous lumen that carries cleaned, filtered blood from the dialysis machine back into the patient's bloodstream.
This catheter stays in a patient's body for 6 - 12 weeks, or even longer, depending on medical decisions, before being replaced with a permanent fistula.
A healthy kidney filters your blood 400 times per day, while a dialysis machine does so only 2 times a week, for about 5 hours per session.
Dialysis patients have to arrive at the renal unit as early as 3 am, twice a week.
Not even a dialysis machine can replace the efficiency of a healthy kidney.
Therefore, take care of your kidneys.
