Mission

SCHEDA was founded with the mission to help reduce morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease, especially from coronary artery disease, structural heart disease and peripheral vascular disease, in underserved low- and middle-income populations globally. We achieve our aspirations by supporting the: Building Autonomous and Sustainable Interventional Cardiovascular Capacity; Increased Access to Specialized Interventional Cardiovascular Patient Care; Screening, Awareness, Education and Training; and Funding the Journey towards Sustainable Cardiovascular Care.

What it reported doing in 2025

Improving care through access to diagnostic imaging: Teleradiology: up to 400 cases reviewed via the CMRAD platform for clinical second opinion and/or education - EFSTH: Due to anticipated IT infrastructure not yet being in place to start the remote teaching for the Residency training program and the clinical second opinion service, this activity was postponed. - MRCG: 116 clinical cases were uploaded to the CMRAD platform and reviewed by volunteer WWR experts for clinical care. Further operational detail for Sept-Nov 2025 can be found in the attached WWR - MRC Operational Report November 2025. These governance reports are produced twice a year, in collaboration with MRC 2. WWR volunteer Radiologists contribute to monthly MDT/X-ray meetings at MRCG 10-15 complex cases (out of the above 116) were discussed at each MDT/X-ray meeting from Sept to Dec 2025. Previous verbal feedback on this service has highlighted the clinical and education benefits. A more formal clinical audit of this service is about to start, which will gather more detailed information on impact on patient care. 3. One WWR Radiologist volunteer from the West African Training Program in Ghana to travel to EFSTH for 1-2 weeks to: a. Conduct a needs assessment for the structured teaching support b. Meet with colleagues at EFSTH and develop a collaboration plan between EFSTH, MRCG and WWR Project Lead going forward
