of Mothers and Children Department has asked related provinces to quickly
inspect recent obstetrical accidents.
The
department has sent a dispatch to the Health Departments of Quang Ngai and Hung
Yen province, requesting these agencies quickly investigating the
responsibility of related individuals and organizations in recent deaths of
pregnant women and their babies.
Specifically,
Le Thi Huong, 23, began labor was hospitalized to the Quang Ngai Polyclinic at
11pm on April 18. At noon of April 19, she had respiratory problems and was
moved to the operating room. However, she died the next morning.
Huong’s
family was very angry and blamed the death on the hospital because the family
asked doctors to perform a Cesarian for Huong, but doctors insisted that she
could give birth naturally.
In Hung
Yen province, Dao Thi Hanh, 31, went to Hung Yen Polyclinic for giving birth at
7am of April 19. At 10pm of the same day, she was very tired. Her family asked
doctors to take a Cesarian because the baby was big (4kg) and the mother was
tired, but doctors did not agree.
At
nearly 4am of April 20, Hanh gave birth to a boy of 4kg but the baby died
immediately. At 5am, Hanh could not breathe. She was moved to the emergency aid
room but the woman was also dead.
These
accidents occurred for nearly two months but the local health departments have
not investigated and reported the results to the Ministry of Health.
