Bengaluru: Some private hospitals in this city have doctors Ayush who works in their Intensive Covid-19 treatment unit (ICUS), according to Revelation made during the trial of the Death FMP Covid Audit Committee meeting on July 23.
The committee discussed 44 Covid deaths, especially those that occurred in various government and private hospitals between June 16 and July 20.
Privy sources for the process saying one of the questions raised to the hospital is if they employ ayush docus.
There is no hospital that admits it.
But it was evident that the Ayush doctor was indeed working as in some cases, a more deteriorating condition of the patient was not picked up as early and there was no satisfactory answer provided by several hospitals when asked to explain why the patient’s health deteriorated.
What saves the patient is the right medicine, the right dose, given at the right time, “said one source.
When not trained, nonopath doctors ended in caring for Covid patients at Allopathy Hospital, they could not take deteriorating signs Because they do not have the skills to diagnose conditions and cannot make clinical decisions, said a doctor.
“If a patient develops sepsis, or electrolyte imbalance or arrhythmias, or a heart attack, the decision must be taken to exercise a patient and nonopathic non-co-allopathic doctor For this, “said a source.
The source said it was no longer a secret that ayush doctor was employed at the private allopathic hospital.” More than that during a pandemic.
No one visited Covid Icus to check, “said one of them.
At the death audit committee meeting, the source said, the members did not have a patient’s casing sheet and had to depend entirely on the hospital statement.
The doctor’s team examined the cause of death asking for BBMP to see In this problem because the Covid treatment protocol was violated in several private hospitals.
“One of the main deviations we found was the lack of internal death audits at the hospital.
None of these cases, the autopsy has been done …
but when we audit only a few deaths, there is no access to patient files and the committee must go with what the hospital said, “said the source.” In some cases, When the doctor asks what can be the cause and source of secondary infections seen in patients, hospitals say cultural reports have not been collected.
The absence of a cultural report is a gray area because some hospitals don’t even try to complete the test.
“Randeep D, Special Health Commissioner, BBMP, said,” Ayush Doctor works in Covid Icus is mostly not a problem in medical colleges.
Can be in a private hospital, especially small nursing homes.
We agree with the observation of the audit committee that the doctor and specialist MBBS must be responsible for the icus.
We will write to such a hospital not to involve non-allopathic doctors for critical care beds.
“Dr.
HM Prasanna, president of the private hospital and the association of nurses’ houses, said the Ayush doctors were indeed employed by several hospitals during the top of the first wave when several doctors refused to work in the Covid Icus which was a high viral load area.” However, at the time The second wave arrived, many hospitals were ready with their staff to handle the ICU.
