@GSTTnhs will begin flying pathology samples between its labs in London Bridge and Waterloo sites by drone. @Apianaero making it possible
The trip between sites is 2 miles, in 2min. Connecting the 2 labs by drone will mean people’s tests are analysed faster
We will trial the use of a drone to transport urgent blood samples from Guy's Hospital to St Thomas' Hospital.
With @Apianaero and @Wing, the pilot project should improve patient care by speeding up turnaround times - from 30 mins by road to 2 mins:

Amazing to see these new @Apianaero and @Wing medical drone services in action today ⛑
These innovative deliveries are speeding up testing times for patients at @GSTTnhs and are tackling air pollution by reducing traffic on our roads ♻

‘1 in 3,000’ has been the mantra for too long. Time for more accurate data ⬇️. Thanks to @AllanBMassie et al - reassuring for clinicians, and more importantly, potential LDs. @BurnappLisa @NHSBT @SinhaSanj @CityUrology @tjbrown55 @KessarisN @slowlor1s @BTStransplant
Very pleased to see our JAMA letter out today, reporting substantial declines in perioperative mortality for living donors. Thanks to @Dorry_Segev @DrMaceyLevan @JenniferDMotter and Jon Snyder jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Our work using drones for blood transport is promising for other temperature and time-critical cargo!

We are the biggest kidney transplant service in the UK, and we're also leaders in the field of shared haemodialysis care and home dialysis.
This #WorldKidneyDay2024 we say a huge thank you to all our specialist teams who work tirelessly to care for our kidney patients.

Eventful first work day in #Mauritius for @bennoivory from @NHSBT as part of deceased donor preparation. Meetings with our team led by @NizamMamode and ICU cut short by a timely evacuation. Torrential rain from approaching cyclone Bilal wreaking havoc elsewhere. @APreeatum
