RS Sardjito began to be overwhelmed Handle the Patient Suspect Bird Flu
JOGJA - RS Sardjito began to be overwhelmed treated the patient suspect bird flu that continued to improve
(in numbers).
If last Monday morning just was recorded by six patients, till yesterday the biggest hospital in DIJ and Central Java South this must treat 11 patients suspect bird flu.
In fact, the bed capacity in special isolation space the bird flu patient only for 11 people.
On Monday night, Sardjito the arrival of five new patients, that is four patients of one family from Playen, Gunungkidul. They dalah the mature patient had the initials AJ, 27; FE, 25; A, 20, and TA, 55.
One other patient came from Semaki, Umbulharjo (Jogja) had the initials MC, 14, the RSUD Wirosaban consignment.
"Until this we treated 11 patients namely PF, CDP, DS, DF, NF, BREAK UP, MC, AJ, FE, A, and TA," explained the Chairman of the Team of the Control of Sardjito Bird Flu Dr Sumardi, yesterday.
The five new patients, according to Sumardi, had the story of contact with the poultry.
When coming to the hospital and the Community Health Centre, they came in the breathless condition, the cough, and hot high.
"Was based on results" of the "patient's interview once contact with the poultry died, then the Community Health Centre and the hospital immediately referred to Sardjito."
The patient from Playen, one the previous day as a family burnt the poultry that just died. At night, they felt breathless, added Sumardi.
Results rapid test the five patients were just stated by the negative.
Nevertheless, the sample of blood continued to be carried to the laboratory of Balitbang Department of Health in Jakarta.
However up until yesterday three patients among them his condition improved.
"Now we only are kept being waiting for results" of the "test of Jakarta."
It was so negative, the patient will be returned or if having the illness that was with him, will be treated dibangsal normally, he said.
Sumardi said, special isolation space the bird flu patient up until yesterday was full by the patient suspect that day after day experienced the increase.
Moreover, the patient not only children's circle, but also the adult.
"Fortunately, one of the patients suspect that came on Monday early afternoon positive contracted dengue fever."
Finally was moved by us to the normal ward to get the maintenance of dengue fever.Because results of the test of Jakarta were also negative.
So, at this time only one empty bed, he explained.
Related increasingly the patient's increase suspect bird flu that was reconciled to RS Sardjito, Sumardi considered has had the high-level panic in the community.
Therefore, yesterday Sardjito officially sent the letter to the Health Service of the DIJ Province in order to appeal to the hospital and the Community Health Centre in his territory to want to carry out the inspection of routine blood to the patient who was suspected by bird flu.
"So before being brought to Sardjito, Mbok yes the hospital or the Community Health Centre carried out the inspection of routine blood." Thought by me the hospital could examine the level of leucocyte, lymphocytes, the function of the kidney, and the function of the heart. If the number of leucocytes and his lymphocytes was low, just was brought to Sardjito.
So as the patient suspect not menumpuk here. We really requested the co-operation from the other hospital, stressed Sumardi.
In the meantime, yesterday was the interesting incident in Kartika's space of the Ward isolation, the place of the patient suspect was treated.
One of the patients from Playen, T, 55, tepergok was smoking in the ward corridor. The patient was then forgotten did not put on the mask.
"Well inside sultry (hot, Red)," said he to the reporter while sucking cigarettes lintingan him. Saw the conduct of the patient, one of the staffs RS Sardjito Banu Hermawan public relations was unstable. Right away he asked the patient to return to his room. "This patient suspect bird flu, so still dangerous to leave isolation space." We apologised to the reporters, he said.
In the meantime, before moving towards isolation space, T could say himself with his family's three members felt the fever, the cough, and breathless after the previous day was touching with four chickens that died in his house.
"I held the chicken died with the hands without the protective sarong."
Then the chicken was buried by me, was not burnt. But, I did not forget to wash the hands when wanting to eat.
The next day, I and the family to the Community Health Centre.
After the official learned we just were touching with the chicken died, then we were carried to Sardjito, explained T. (
