krish_adurs Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 21 die in Hyderabad govt hospital, staff blame power cut TNN | Jul 24, 2016, 04.53 AM IST HIGHLIGHTS Frequent power outages plague Hyderabad's Gandhi hospital Staff blame 21 deaths in a day on power outages A hospital source said some of the deaths were of patients on life support system, such as ventilators and incubators in the neo-natal ward. HYDERABAD: The state-run Gandhi Hospital, a premier 1,200-bed medical facility in the city, is under a cloud after 21 patients died on Friday and the medical staff blamed power outages for the deaths. Some doctors said electricity first tripped around 3pm and then continued to do so at regular intervals. Although there were four generators on standby, the hospital claimed they had developed snags and could not be used after power lines were later cut off, to find the cause of the tripping. The deaths occurred in specialty wards, including the surgical intensive care unit, neo-natal intensive care unit, respiratory intensive care unit, acute medical care unit and the emergency ward, all of which were affected by Friday's power failure. Telangana health minister Dr C Laxma Reddy said it would be wrong to directly blame the deaths in a top state-run tertiary hospital on the power outages as they get "maximum number of last-stage cases". "In my 14 years of working at this hospital, on an average, 10 patients die every day," said Dr R Raghu, general secretary (Gandhi Hospital unit), Telangana Government Doctors' Association. Professor C V Chalam, the superintendent in charge of Gandhi Hospital, told TOI that each of the 21 deaths would have to be probed to determine if any of them was directly or indirectly linked to the blackout. "We will take up this exercise on Monday," he said. Asked what went wrong with the power supply, Professor Chalam, who was at the hospital till 12.30 am supervising the seven engineers struggling to restore power supply, said power was cut off to repair the lines after the intermittent cuts. Last month, there had been a similar blackout. The hospital relied on its four generators, using two at a time till the power supply was restored, he added. "There is a three-phase power supply to the hospital, but with the lines tripping on and off, our staff found it difficult to manage uninterrupted supply," he said. A source at the hospital told TOI that some of the deaths on Friday were of patients who were on life support system, such as ventilators and incubators in the neo-natal ward. Other emergency equipment that needed high voltage power to function was also affected. "I used my mobile phone torch to carry out an emergency surgery on a 28-year old man with an infected intestine," said a senior doctor, who was on duty in one of the affected departments. Though ambu-bags providing hand-pressed oxygen were used on all patients who were on ventilators, the source said it was possible that some of the attendants may have administered the gas incorrectly. This job is usually handled by hospital staff, but the task was left to the attendants on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
