Death of a “Corona” patient due to interruption of ventilation and water!

i wrote Maryam Majdulin Lahham in Nidaa Al Watan newspaper:

Maan Mustafa Bakr (58 years old) died Monday morning of heat and thirst at the Tripoli government hospital. The audio recordings pointed to a serious medical negligence in the treatment of his state of health, as he appealed to his son, wife and friend, through voice messages, before taking his last breath, saying: “The light, the situation in my room is disturbing, I am forbidden to open the door or window, I demand five hours “. Crawling, ”… five hours I appeal to“ May Point ”, and no one comes… Please contact the hospital director, Nasser Adra,“ I saw death ”…

The ventilators did not stop despite the power outage, but the ventilation in the rooms stopped as soon as the “state electricity” stopped, noting that the hospital is equipped with 4 generators and enough Ups to operate the ventilators in situations of emergency, but not sufficient to operate the ventilation or air conditioning system. It is clear to those who listen to the recording of the deceased that the oxygen machine is working and he knows from its help that he is very disturbed by the “heat”, thirst and “ambition” in his closed “Coronian” prison.

Hours of last dispute

In order not to continue looking for opportunities to direct the apparent “lack” of help from the deceased to the “Crown epidemic”, their children chose to turn to the media, to tell the story of their father who died, not with the alive crisis that suffocates us, but with the “lack of air and water” and … power cuts. Ventilation for all Corona patients at Tripoli Governmental Hospital.

It was eight o’clock in the evening, when the late Tariq called his son, Tariq, and said: “Don’t worry about Corona, my health is excellent and my breathing is good, but I’m thirsty” … “Buy a lot, Dad, to my satisfaction, transfer me to a private hospital. ” Tariq narrated to “Nida Al Watan” how she communicated with The Ministry of Health transferred her father directly to a private hospital, and then the ministry replied that she had to bring a “medical report” from the Tripoli hospital to transfer her … ”. And he added: “I asked them if my father drank, was thirsty, and we brought him water from us and not from the state, so they said no, but we prayed to him … What disturbs my sleep is that my father died of thirsty, and I hear his voice over and over in my head and in voicemails, and I regret not doing so. Get into his lap and drink him with my hands.

He added: “My father died later … the stone encountered a high temperature that resembles a sauna, so my father was thirsty and was not treated with a drink of water … Instead of my death father is diagnosed with ‘hyperthermia’, that is, an increase in body temperature as a result of the lack of temperature regulation, which occurs when the body produces or absorbs more heat than it can lose, which is a health condition that is included in a medical emergency and requires prompt treatment to prevent complications that can lead to death, the cause of death is returned to Corona. Knowing that, two hours before his admission to resuscitation, they gave us a report that his health status improved significantly and that we could transfer him.

The hospital’s statement contradicts their report

And in what seems like an intelligent anticipation of what happened, the hospital issued a statement explaining that “the deceased patient’s health status” continued to deteriorate despite all the treatments and a ventilator, until he died on 9/20/2020 due to to severe respiratory failure caused by acute inflammation of the lungs caused by Coronavirus infection, and the electricity to the respiratory system has not been cut off ”, without addressing the issue of interruption of air conditioning and ventilation or thirst and neglect of patient requests.

However, his statement contradicted the medical report that was given to the family just two hours before he was taken to the recovery room. What surprised his children. He asks his son: “If my father’s condition was deteriorating, why did he give us a sealed medical report that his health has improved by 95%?” Are the medical reports “absent-demand” or real? And by what right do they cut off ventilation for patients whose symptoms are high fever ?! And since they are in a closed space, is it really enough to put oxygen in a closed space without air? What is this slow death? Just think about it, I’m short of breath. “

His voice shook Tripoli

At first, Tariq did not listen to all of his father’s pleas, and only thought about his last contact with him, but after the funeral, he searched his father’s WhatsApp and saw that he had sent voice messages to a friend and his mother, and said: “I wanted to hear his voice again, my father was in good health. Before all this, he did not expect his death, so during the day they transferred him to the hospital “he went down the stairs” to the ambulance, because they cut off his power. He entered the Corona department on 09/13/2020 due to his contagion with Corona disease and a week later I buried him .. My father did not drink OR he smokes, or he has a habit that weakens his body, his health is better than mine . I feel like my father died of medical negligence. “

While the voice of the late Maan Bakr toured Tripoli as part of the search in Lebanon for a lost constitution from implementation, and for a “marvelous” one that saves citizens and subsequent patients from an inevitable “hell”, or even Safe hospitals … Tripoli trembled, and other stories came about the grieving family Patients have already died from the heat, is there anyone to answer?
