Two green corridors by Jaypee hospital save six lives
Advertisement
Jaypee Hospital, Noida, created two green corridors to give a new lease of life to six persons in the National Capital Region.
Green corridor is a special travel route without red lights to ensure transportation of vital organs in minimal time.
While a 16-km green corridor successfully transported a donor kidney to Fortis in Noida in 12 minutes, a heart was sent to Max Hospital, Saket at a distance of 32 km in 25 minutes.
Jaypee Hospital also transplanted a liver, a kidney and both the corneas in the hospital itself.
The donor, 40-year-old Satish Tawde, who came to Delhi on an official trip from Mumbai, was admitted at Jaypee Hospital on Friday after he felt some discomfort in the hotel room.
Despite the best efforts of the doctors, the patient who suffered a sub-arachnoid haemorrhage, could not be revived and was declared brain dead on Saturday morning.
