MP: Woman gives birth in ambulance, Thanks to EMT and ASHA worker
Indore: A pregnant woman successfully delivered her baby inside an ambulance with the help of an emergency medical technician (EMT), an ASHA worker and another staff member on Thursday.

However, Manju's pain increased a lot, following which the EMT, pilot and Asha worker took the consent of the family members to perform the delivery inside the ambulance. They delivered the baby successfully inside the ambulance which was on its way to a health centre in Palia.
The mother and the baby were shifted to a hospital after the delivery. Chief Medical Health Officer Dr BS Saitya informed the Times of India, "Both the mother and son are fine and healthy. The immediate and appropriate response from staff inside the ambulance led to successful delivery."
Sanjeevani-108 are Emergency Medical Ambulance Services (EMAS) which are running across the state of Madhya Pradesh and are popularly known as 108 Ambulance services. They are deployed across Madhya Pradesh and supported with a fully functional centralized control centre in Bhopal. The service is run by the MP government under the public-private partnership model.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that a 24-year-old woman gave birth to triplets, all baby boys, in an ambulance while being taken to a hospital in Madhya Pradesh’s Raisen district. Jyoti Bai of Pipliya Goli village was first taken to the Goharganj primary health centre after she complained of stomach pain. However, her condition deteriorated, prompting the health centre to send her to the state-run Sultania Hospital in Bhopal by the government’s 108 ambulance service, said the official.
