In a recent medical case, a patient suffering from metabolic encephalopathy was admitted to a private hospital for a period of two to three days. Unfortunately, the patient’s condition deteriorated, prompting a transfer to a renowned corporate hospital in Nagpur. The individual received intensive care unit (ICU) treatment at the corporate hospital for approximately one week. Despite the medical interventions, there was no significant improvement in the patient’s neurological status. In fact, their condition continued to worsen, leading to a subsequent transfer to SMHRC & DBASI. Financial constraints and the lack of improvement were the primary reasons for this decision.
Upon arrival at SMHRC & DBASI hospital, the patient was found to be heavily reliant on inotropic support and exhibited an extremely poor Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score. To ensure the patient’s airway protection, he was intubated and placed on a ventilator. The medical team promptly initiated a treatment plan consisting of higher antibiotic administration and other supportive measures. Following approximately one week on the ventilator, the patient’s condition gradually improved, enabling the medical team to successfully wean them off the ventilator. Subsequently, the patient’s condition stabilized after spending approximately 12 days in the ICU.
In response to the patient’s improvement, Dr. Neha Goenka Agrawal, in charge of the Critical Care Division, SMHRC & DBASI expressed that the dedication of the ICU team and the total faith of relatives played a significant role. The team consists of Dr. Amol Pise, Dr. Abhijeet Lode, Dr. Dhruv Shah, and Dr. Renuka along with a dedicated nursing team, Br. Sachin, Br. Nikesh, Chitralekha & Sr.Priyanka led by Br. Neeraj Kalihari- Matron strived to provide advanced care.
Relatives of patients expressed gratitude to TEAM SMHRC led by Meghe Group to have envisioned such a state-of-the-art hospital to provide solace to the poor and needy. Rendition of affordable quality Health care is practiced with missionary zeal by a full-time dedicated multi-specialty team at SMHRC on round a clock basis.
