Third wave: 50k bed, 2k ventilator ready on vid

The second wave shows us the worst covid pandemic when the patient struggles to get oxygen, bed, medicine, and some even die in the ambulance and at home.
The situation is now under control, but experts and the third wave of authority.
Looking forward to the discussion that began in the toy debate held this week, the new series began today to see various aspects of preparedness for the third wave, if it attacks, in Vidarbhanagpur: in more than one year struggling against the crisis, the Vidarbha region built covid management capabilities by placing In place 822 Dedicated Covid Hospital (DCHS), Special Covid Health Center (DCHC) and Covid Treatment Center (CCCS) in 11 districts.
This facility can collectively meet more than 50,000 patients who need tertiary care for institutional quarantine at once.
Last year, no more than 6,000 beds were available in this region.
Augmented health infrastructure now has more than 6,018 ICU and 2,000 ventilator beds, which are very important in covid care.
Before the first wave and to a certain extent to the second onset, the crisis of the bed remained challenging the foundation of Hunding patients and covid patients.
From the area it has faced a lack of beds in August-September last year during the first wave, the crisis was acute in the second wave.
Set especially during the second wave attack in March-April this year, most of these facilities barely have patients now.
At government facilities, the flow has dropped dramatically.
On that date, Vidarbha has less than 1,400 patients in care.
Because only 20% require hospitalization in accordance with official estimates, Covid surplus infrastructure has been privately closed, while General Hospitals now get rid of part in pediatric patients.
The third wave, if it was beaten, it is expected to involve children, experts have warned.
The President of the Vidarbha Hospital Association, Dr.
Ashok Arbat said, “The second wave is unimaginable.
The patient’s wave, which is also in a short time in April-May, is beyond imagination.
Practical, we are not ready to deal with such a big burden.
At first , We do not have a bed, then lack oxygen, health workers and drugs needed.
This is a crisis related to the hospital.
The next challenge is the disposal of a covid body or even the transfer of patients.
All necessary infrastructure is not enough.
“Lack of health care is blamed on apathy Government, who is not enough to prepare himself.
“Whatever settings available at personal facilities fail,” said Dr.
Arbat.
The second wave also leads to many new hospitals that appear.
“The existing hospital also increases their capacity of 20 to 30 beds at least, both in the basement or turns off the department, to make the Covid section.
Another setting is to start a hospital in the hall or a dead building, which has since been closed.
The hospital full time continues, not only for Covid but also for all patients, “said Dr.
Arbat.
President VHA felt that the existing infrastructure because the third wave would not be as severe.
“Most of the populations have been infected, and many have been vaccinated.
Thus, the third wave, if it comes, it is not possible as big as the second,” he said.
The second wave also left a trace of other major challenges in black mushrooms, also known as Mucormycosis.head and Surgical Neck Dr.
Shailesh Kothalkar, which operates many musormycotic patients, said monitoring and sugar control in post-covid patients is very important.
“Nasal endoscopy diagnostics are a basic tool in mucoric clinical detection and must be preferred.
The availability of drugs must be ascertained,” he said.
In black mushrooms became an infection obtained by the hospital, Dr.
Kothalkar said, “It might have some relevance because the majority of mucor patients are not treated properly in hygienic conditions that are well maintained.
Disinfectants and maintain cleanliness cannot be in a small setting even though it cannot be proven this is The main reason.
The main cause is the suppression of immunity caused by the Delta variant.
The use of steroids that are not holy and the lack of sugar control is another cause, “he said.
For Kothalkar added, “should have to have a glucometer to ensure post-covid patients continue to examine their sugar levels and make them aware of the black mushrooms so they can take precautions.
Early diagnosis and early care are the keys,” he said.
