Taking note of the various anomalies in the hospital, including its lack of registration and the stock of expired medicines, the Health Department has now sealed the hospital.

Indore: Three doctors belonging to a private hospital in Indore have recently been booked by police for alleged medical negligence during the treatment of a 17-year-old patient, who allegedly died due to anaesthesia overdose.

According to the Free Press Journal report, following an inquiry report submitted by the Health Department, Lasudia police booked these three doctors on Monday under Section 304 A of the IPC.

Commenting on this, the in-charge of Lasudia police station, Santosh Dudhi told TOI, “Following report from CMHO office, we found three doctors guilty of negligence in treatment. So, they were booked.”

FPJ adds that the FIR was lodged by the police after the family members of the late patient met the Chief Minister and lodged a complaint against the doctors and hospital on Monday. Meanwhile, the family members of the patient have also demanded action against the accused doctors and their arrest.

After meeting with an accident, the teenager on May 29 was admitted to a Rambagh-based Hospital for treatment. As per the latest media report by the Times of India, the treating doctors administered an injection to him and the health condition of the patient allegedly worsened. Consequently, the patient was shifted to another hospital, where he breathed his last, informed police.

During the investigation of the matter, police found that the accused doctors did not comply with the pre-operative guidelines in the case. Allegedly anaesthesia was given to the patient without performing a sensitivity test, which is mandatory before giving anaesthesia. Police further informed that the accused doctors had not taken consent from the parents of the patient in the required format.

Besides, Police officials informed the Daily that during the probe it was also revealed that there was no ICU, ventilator or other things which are required for managing patients during surgeries.

Free Press Journal adds that the complaint of negligent death against the hospital was lodged during the 'Jansunvai' on which collector Illayaraja T directed the officials of the Health Department for setting up a committee and investigating the matter. The Health Department was also directed to conduct an inspection.

During the inspection, the officials were shocked to find out that the OT, ICU, wards, and other areas of the hospital were filled with dirt and shockingly the hospital also did not have any MBBS doctor associated with it.

“The hospital was full of dirt and filth. Norms of registration, maintenance of OT, wards, and others were not being followed. Moreover, the hospital had no MBBS doctor associated and those working there were unani medicine practitioners,” the officials told FPJ adding that expired drugs were also found in the hospital.

Taking note of the various anomalies in the hospital, including its lack of registration and the stock of expired medicines, the Health Department has now sealed the hospital.

Commenting on this, Chief Medical and Health Officer Dr. BS Saitya told FPJ, “The hospital was functional without any registration. Various anomalies were found after which the hospital was sealed."
