University College Hospital Ibadan (UCH Ibadan)

Ibadan’s University College Hospital was the first in Nigeria to manufacture sterile items for her patients. Infusions, such as normal saline, 5% dextrose, Hartman’s solution, dialyzing fluids—which were packaged in plasmosan bottles, smaller injections like Morphine sulphate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium chloride—which were filled in empty streptomycin and penicillin bottles), eye drops, and nasal drops date back to 1952, according to the 1953 handing over of the patent.

 

Two adult arthroscopes were purchased by University College Hospital two years ago, and 12 successful knee arthroscopic procedures have been performed since then. Prof. Temitayo Shokunbi of the ‘nail in the head’ renown has also begun neuroendoscopic treatments in youngsters with brain lesions with success. Bone scanning services utilising radioactive drugs have begun at the newly constructed nuclear medicine department, the country’s first. Both medical and oncological diagnosis and therapy are provided through this service. The UCH has performed diagnostic medical endoscopy of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. The newly updated endoscopic facility has broadened its scope since the 1980s.

 

The University College Hospital (UCH) was conveniently positioned in Ibadan, once West Africa’s largest metropolis and the home of Nigeria’s first university. The Hospital’s physical development began in 1953 on its current site, and it was formally commissioned on November 20, 1957. The University College Hospital in Ibadan was built with 500 beds at first. The hospital now has 850 beds and 163 examination couches, with occupancy rates ranging from 55 to 60%.
