The hospital currently uses just one machine that often breaks down because doctors use it every day for many patients. Poor people depend on the hospital's cheap services when they need emergency heart care. The machine stopped working for two weeks after it broke from heavy use. Government officials decided to move an unused heart machine from Manikganj Medical College Hospital to Chattogram. Manikganj received two expensive machines five years ago but never used them because they lacked trained doctors. The Health Ministry made the transfer official during May through a signed notice. Officials said the move would help serve more heart patients in the port city area. Chattogram's heart department has used one Japanese machine for four years to perform different heart procedures. The machine stopped working last January for two weeks when it broke from constant use. Another heart machine broke during 2021 and would cost about two crore taka to fix. Doctors said having another working machine would help them treat patients much better. Heart doctor Nazrul Islam Talukder explained that government hospitals charge much less than private hospitals for heart treatment. Professor Nur Uddin Tarek leads the heart department and said patient numbers keep growing each year. Hospital director Mohammad Taslim Uddin confirmed that money has been approved to bring the machine from Manikganj. The new equipment should arrive at the heart department very soon. [/QUOTE]
