Gurdaspur, September 15, 2024: Settling a benchmark, a team of doctors in a Government hospital in the Gurdaspur district performed a successful operation on a three-and-a-half-foot pregnant woman Rimpi. The woman reportedly had a safe delivery and gave birth of a healthy baby.
The doctors of Government Hospital Gurdaspur decided to operate on the patients themselves instead of referring them to Amritsar.
The team of government doctors performed the first-ever cesarean delivery on a three-foot-tall woman. Earlier the hospital had decided to send the patient to Amritsar but considering the condition of the patient and urgency, the team decided to go forward with the operation.
The team was provided with emergency oxygen from the oxygen plant installed in the hospital and the doctors courageously performed the first such successful operation. Doctors informed that both mother and baby are healthy.
Doctors Smita and Upasana who operated Rimpi shared that
Rimpi would have needed oxygen immediately if she had been given an anesthetic injection on her spine. Because if an anesthetic injection is applied to the spine of short people, it can go towards the head. Due to non-availability of ventilator, first it was considered appropriate to send her to Amritsar, but due to her poor financial condition, her requested the doctors that the operation should be done here, then the top officials Dr. Bharat Bhushan CMO, Dr. Romi Raja Mahajan DMC , Arvind Mahajan with the collective support of CMO Dr. Vishal and other team, Rimpi was operated in Civil Hospital Gurdaspur itself which turnout to be a success.
"The required oxygen was provided from the oxygen plant in the government hospital and the higher officials kept their eyes on this operation at all times. Rimpi's operation is going well and now she has given birth to a healthy baby boy. The condition of the child is also completely fine. Government doctors have claimed that now they will try to treat every serious disease in Gurdaspur itself," informed doctors.
Civil Surgeon Dr. Bharat Bhushan and DMC Dr. Romi Raja Mahajan have congratulated the team of doctors for this success.
