– More than 200 pregnant women were isolated, which means they were covid positive or suspected of corona. We gave birth to 50 pregnant women who tested positive, fortunately most were asymptomatic or with mild symptoms. Since the new wave started, we have been receiving and giving birth to several positive pregnant women every day, Stefanović told Pink.
As she says, all the mothers were sent home along with the recovered babies.
– We have been working at an accelerated pace for months, since March and April, when many clinical-hospital centers entered the covid system, we have a greater influx of pregnant women and in terms of their examinations, controls, specialized examinations, hospitalizations and deliveries – Stefanović pointed out .
As you say, in Visegradska, they have adapted to that way of working a long time ago, with all the measures and recommendations of the Ministry of Health.
– First we measure the temperature of the patients, we do an epidemiological survey, we see if there are symptoms and we take all those who have suspicions or have a confirmed covid to a special entrance of the clinic, we examine them in the so-called isolation clinics, they are special for pregnant women, special for gynecological patients. we put them in the isolation parts of the clinic for diagnosis – he said.
Stefanović mentioned that yesterday a room was emptied in order to properly isolate all patients who are positive or suspected of covid.
– For deliveries, we plan a physically separate operating room if it is caesarean section, and if they give birth naturally, they go to an isolated and separate part of the maternity ward. After giving birth, we put them in isolation rooms. The same goes for gynecological patients who are covid positive, he added.
According to him, in the last 24 hours there were 24 births, well above the average.
– The clinic has already reached the number of births in one year, we will surely have about 1,000 more births than last year – said Stefanović.
