A patient who was given Mosambi juice instead of blood platelets died in Prayagraj hospital


Lucknow ,dt. 21

In a private Hospital in Prayagraj , a 32-year-old man who was a Patient of ' Dengue ' died prematurely after giving Mosambi juice as a ' drip ' . Hence, the patient's relatives complained to the government and the hospital was ' sealed ' and further investigation is being carried out including sample testing of the incident. Chief Medical Officer of Prayagraj told reporters.

According to the available details about this incident, in a private hospital ' Global Hospital and Trauma Center ' located in Prayagraj (original name Allahabad), a plastic bag marked ' Plasma ' actually contained musambi juice and it was placed on the hook of the stand to be ' transfused ' . As the drip progressed, the patient's condition worsened. Finally, seeing the promising youth's health deteriorating, his family took him to another private hospital. He died before the treatment started. Doctors at another hospital said that it was a 'platelet bag ' , whichwas wrong. It contained chemicals and grape juice.

Defending this inexcusable negligence, the doctors of Global Hospital said that the bag was given by the relatives of the patient , and it was delivered.

The question is that the hospital does not keep drip bags ? So that bags are sent to the patients' relatives. Another thing is more serious, why was the fluid in the plastic bag not checked before administering the drip from the bag that the patient was to be given plasma. If its color is almost like musambi juice and the bag is given by the patient's relatives, the bag is placed on the drip-stand, then the question arises whether the fluid in the hospital bag must also be examined , if the ' drip-bag ' given by the patient's relatives Why was not investigated ? It was this inexcusable carelessness that claimed the life of a promising young man of only 32 years. His wife's brother expressed his grief with outrage and said that it was this negligence that made my 26-year-old sister a widow.
