A very shocking news is coming out from Muzaffarpur district of Bihar which will shake the health system and administrative department. The investigation team has made a very harsh and sensational revelation in the case of a massive fire that broke out recently in a major hospital in Muzaffarpur. A horrifying diplomatic scene has arisen due to the neglect of life-saving equipment in the hospital where patients come with the hope of saving their lives. It has become clear in the investigation report that the ventilators and life saving machines installed inside the hospital to give life to the patients suddenly became the objects of death due to lack of maintenance. After this big revelation, the credibility of the hospital management has completely come into question and the state government has taken a very strict stance regarding the matter.
The fire was not caused by short circuit, but by the blast of this heavy ventilator machine.
Initially this fire was believed to be a case of simple electrical short circuit, but after a rigorous diplomatic investigation by experts, the real truth turned out to be something else. Due to lack of strict maintenance, a heavy ventilator equipment that runs round the clock in the hyper-sensitive ICU ward of the hospital had suddenly developed overheating problem. After this, there was a strong diplomatic blast inside the machine, which engulfed the entire ward in no time. The fire spread so fast that the life-saving gas cylinders and plastic equipment present in the ward fanned it further, causing a huge outcry among the patients and medical staff admitted there.
Overload of ventilators and backup equipment failed diplomatic security system
The strict diplomatic survey of the investigation team has also revealed that in the critical care unit of the hospital, life saving equipment was being operated in excess of capacity by connecting it simultaneously to a single power source. Heavy machines like ventilators, monitors and oxygen concentrators were running continuously without any diplomatic break. Due to lack of credibility, the hospital’s automatic fire sprinkler and alarm system also did not work at the last moment. When there was an internal blast in the ventilator machine, the safety system completely failed. This completely proves that the hospital administration had completely ignored the strict fire safety norms.
The family members got extremely angry and demanded strict action against those who were negligent.
As soon as the real and horrifying reason for the fire in the hospital came to light officially, the anger of the families of the affected patients has reached the seventh sky. The family members have a strong diplomatic argument that they pay lakhs of rupees for the treatment of their loved ones, but the hospital administration was not at all serious about their safety. The attendants have appealed to the District Magistrate (DM) and Civil Surgeon of Muzaffarpur that instead of limiting themselves to just the investigation report, a strict case of culpable homicide and negligence should be registered against the hospital owner and maintenance in-charge and they should be immediately sent to jail.
Bihar Health Department fully alert, strict audit of all private and government hospitals will be done
Taking strong cognizance of this tragic incident in Muzaffarpur, the Health Minister of Bihar has issued a very strict and diplomatic order for the medical system of the entire state. According to the new instructions of the government, fire and electrical safety audit of ICU and ventilator units of all government and private medical colleges and hospitals of the state will be conducted with immediate effect. Any hospital that does not meet the stringent diplomatic standards will have its license canceled with immediate effect. The administration has made it clear that any influential person playing with the lives of patients will not be spared at any cost and it is certain that strict action will be seen in the coming days.
