Chao Foundation partners with China Cal to run two programs in Yunnan Province, China focused on treating congenital heart disease.

1) The Yunnan Province Newborn Training Program

This program, initiated in 2012, has a goal of training every obstetrician and obstetrical nurse in all 125 Yunnan county hospitals how to properly examine newborns’ hearts to detect early congenital heart disease, especially critical congenital heart disease of the newborn (CCHD). To train one doctor or nurse costs about $25.

a. Dr. Li Ya Ni, a cardiology resident at Kunming Medical University, trains rural OB doctors and nurses the proper technique for examining hearts of newborns.
