"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in dialysis, there are two important consumables that are used; distilled water and filament, as my friend Dr. Eseli would know. There are two ways of using that filament that purifies the blood; one, is to use and dispose of it, which makes it very expensive and the other is to make sure the patient uses the filament and it is stored at the facility. Every time the patient comes, it is cleaned and uses it again as is done in India and the United States of America (USA). I think that is the direction we are moving. However, it is important that we move away from patients buying bottled distilled water and have processed water within the hospital which can be used by the patient when being dialyzed. I think that is the direction in which KNH is also moving. I think the more we improve our technology of dialysis and the more we employ nurses and service staff who know what they are doing, the more we shall avoid the kind of issue the hon. Member is raising. I do understand that we must improve in the administration and management of our hospitals to provide proper health care and reduce costs. We are determined to do this. We know we are coming from a period when some of these things were not properly done. The aim of our hospitals, however, is for constant performance improvement."
