Overview

Here is the top health news for today: 9o

Science vs Tradition? Doctors oppose MBBS-BAMS course, move Health Ministry

Doctors have moved the Health Ministry expressing their strong dissatisfaction with the central government's recent decision to approve India's first integrated MBBS+BAMS course, which aims to combine modern medicine with Ayurveda at JIPMER Puducherry.

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported about the Centre's plans of integrating allopathic and Ayurvedic medicine with plans to launch India's first MBBS-BAMS course at JIPMER. Announcing the plan, Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare and AYUSH (Independent Charge), Prataprao Jadhav, said that the course is at the conceptual stage, with a new syllabus in development.

Strongly opposing the government decision to launch the course and calling it 'scientifically flawed' and 'incompatible', the United Doctors Front (UDF) association recently stated that merging both systems of medicine into a single course is scientifically flawed and could harm the quality of medical education. Therefore, the association demanded that the government reconsider and revoke the proposed course.

Tripura to partner with AIIMS Delhi to boost healthcare infrastructure

The Tripura government is set to join hands with the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Delhi for the improvement of healthcare facilities in the state, a senior official said on Wednesday.

For the purpose, a four-member team from AIIMS New Delhi, headed by its Director M Srinivas, will arrive in Tripura on June 7 on a two-day visit, he said.

According to the PTI report, Health Secretary Kiran Gitte said, “We are keen to enhance collaboration with AIIMS-New Delhi for research, development and hospital management to improve overall healthcare in the state”.

The team will meet Chief Minister Manik Saha during the visit, he said.

It will also visit the GBP Hospital and Agartala Medical College (AGMC), and discuss with the authorities on how to improve healthcare facilities, he added.

GBP Hospital’s Deputy Medical Superintendent Kanak Chowdhury said the visit is important as it will guide the upgrading of the healthcare facilities at the state’s premier hospital.

“Around 2,000 patients visit the hospital’s outpatient department daily. Already, seven super-speciality departments, including neurosurgery and urology, have been introduced,” he said.

Delhi hospitals told to centralize procurement of medicines, medical devices

In a move to streamline the procurement of medicines and medical devices, the Delhi government has directed all state-run hospitals to buy consumables and medicines through the Central Procurement Agency (CPA), according to officials.

Earlier, hospitals either used to make direct purchases or used the cart feature on the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) portal, which led to inflated prices, the officials said.

Going forward, hospitals will have to submit their demands to the CPA, which will assess the urgency of supply and coordinate the procurement process on behalf of the hospitals. Direct purchase of medicines will no longer be permitted in any government hospital, they said.

"It has come to the attention of the Minister, Health and Family Welfare, that certain hospitals and institutions have been procuring medical devices, consumables, equipment and machinery through direct purchases or by using the cart feature on the Government e-Marketplace portal," the order stated, news agency PTI reported.

"This practice has led to inflated prices, significant price discrepancies and raises serious concerns of audit non-compliance," it said.

The CPA will be responsible for the purchase of medicines, consumables, medical devices, machinery and equipment. It will carry out procurement based on the requirements submitted by hospitals, institutions and health centres across Delhi.

Govt Doctor suspended for negligence after woman injected in wrong eye

In a shocking case of alleged medical negligence, a senior ophthalmologist at the Government Eye Hospital in Thiruvananthapuram has been suspended for administering an injection to the wrong eye of a patient. The suspension of the Assistant Professor was confirmed by the office of the Director of Medical Education (DME) and comes amid an ongoing investigation into the incident.

The patient, Assor Beevi, a resident of Beemapally, had been undergoing treatment for vision problems linked to high blood pressure. She was supposed to receive an injection in her left eye to address a vein swelling. However, during the procedure, the injection was mistakenly administered in her right eye.

According to news reports, Majeed, Asoor’s son, stated that she had been receiving treatment at the Regional Institute of Ophthalmology within the government eye hospital for over a month. He further explained that the doctor had prescribed an eye injection and directed him to obtain the medicine from a private source, as it was unavailable at nearby medical stores.
