Fighting Critical Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD)
Dear Supporter ,
Two of every one thousand babies are born with critical congenital heart disease (CCHD). These babies will not survive more than one month unless they make it to the operating table to correct their lethal birth defect.
In the United States and other developed countries, all newborns undergo simple cardiac screening at birth and those with CCHD are treated promptly with appropriate surgery. Most survive to adulthood.
In rural Yunnan Province, all infants with CCHD die. None are detected by screening because there are no heart screening programs for Yunnan newborns. None receive proper diagnosis or treatment. Lacking knowledge about cardiac screening, families and local medical personnel cannot help these babies and, in fact, are left with little idea as to why these infants do not survive past the first few weeks of life.
Three years ago, China Cal, in cooperation with the University of California, Irvine, the Masimo Corporation, Irvine, and the Ping and Amy Chao Foundation, set out to end this senseless loss of life.
The Yunnan Newborn Cardiac Training Program trains rural obstetricians and obstetric nurses in proper cardiac examinations of newborns. China Cal has already trained all obstetric doctors and nurses in half of the Yunnan Province counties. Over 30,000 newborns have undergone appropriate screening exams because of this training program. Hundreds of doctors and nurses have received training. High quality Masimo pulse oximeters, necessary for appropriate heart screening, have been donated to 60 poor rural county hospitals.
Baby Luo is one month old and is proof that the China Cal screening program works. Baby Luo’s CCHD (pulmonary valve atresia) was detected because of the China Cal screening program, and he is now recovering from CCHD surgery in Chengdu West China Hospital. His surgery was supported by China Cal’s collaborators, the Ai You foundation and the Ping and Amy Chao Foundation.
Baby Luo is only the first of many newborns who will be given a chance to survive. We calculate that about 2,000 newborns in Yunnan Province have CCHD. We implore you to help. Get involved. Join our summer externships. If you are a doctor or a nurse, volunteer to help us train and screen newborns. Please donate now to our Grants for Kids and training programs.
Thank you.

脑残分析，简直不敢相信她在说什么-如果不是翻译错误的话！图一显示，互联网在2008年以来一直以每年2-3亿户的速度增长，由于基数的增大，%增长率轻微平缓地降低，但是仍然在10%的水平。网络用户的急速增长在移动领域更加明显，过去几年一直以几何级数增长。所以，以上开场白简直是痴人说梦！！
