[ad_1]

The situation with the Intensive Care Units in Thessaly is out of control, as they have been filled with cases of coronavirus in hospitals in Western and Central Macedonia.

Intubated patients are treated outside the ICU, while doctors are now forced to choose who will enter the ICU and who will not. According to the president of POEDIN, Michalis Giannakos, “several intubated cases were transported from Thessaly to the Lamia and Chalkidos ICUs with a capacity of 6 beds each, which also filled” and adds that the age limit for patients falls in ICU because there is no room for all the elderly.

It is characteristic that the administration of the University Hospital of Larissa had two elderly intubated in common rooms with a ventilator. He emptied an ICU bed and they prepared the delivery of one and caught a new person intubating the bed that was transported from Karditsa.

The administration of the Larissa University Hospital admitted that in the afternoon there is a problem with the feeding of patients with coronavirus, due to the shortage of personnel. “Some do not eat.” They told us that there are many young patients who are hospitalized and intubated, “complains POEDIN.

In fact, 4 infants of a few days old are treated at the University Hospital as suspected cases and two infants of 20 and 22 days.

The administration and the doctors clarified that there are no personnel for the development of other individual beds but also coronavirus ICUs.

According to POEDIN, 47 nurses and 15 doctors are ill at Larissa University Hospital, with a total number of medical and nursing staff exceeding 80.

At Larissa General Hospital, two nurses are treated in the ICU, one of whom is intubated. In all the hospitals in Thessaly, more than 250 nurses and doctors are sick with new data.
