Cardiopulmonary Bypass Appeal - help us raise £75,000

Following on from our fantastic success last year, we are aiming to raise the ambitious sum of £75,000 to purchase a new cardiopulmonary bypass machine (CBM). The CBM becomes the hearts and lungs of almost all the patients who undergo surgery at Papworth Hospital - nearly 2,000 people each year.

With five operating theatres working almost constantly, the coronary bypass machines play a vital role in ensuring that patients receive the operation they need, when they need it.
