U.S. Air Force Col. Robert Noll, 349th Medical Squadron commander and vascular surgeon, and Tech. Sgt. Michael Jones, 349th MDS surgical technician, conduct an Arteriovenous Fistula procedure on a patient during the Lesser Antilles Medical Assistance Team mission at St. Jude Hospital in Vieux Fort, Saint Lucia, March 4, 2025. A dialysis fistula is a connection that a surgeon makes between an artery and a vein to make it possible for a patient to receive hemodialysis. The LAMAT mission seeks to strengthen U.S. partnerships within Latin America and the Caribbean region by providing relief to overwhelmed medical facilities through collaboration with host nation medical practitioners and respective Ministry of Health officials.
