InlaksHospital & SadhuVaswaniCollege of Nursing’s Pivotal Role in Treating Victims of the Bomb Blast at Pune
The tragedy that hit around 7:00 pm on 13th Feb 2010 at German Bakery is less than 1 km from the Inlaks and Budhrani Hospital, part of the Sadhu Vaswani Mission’s Medical Complex at Koregaon Park, Pune. The hospital started receiving the injured within 10 minutes of the tragedy despite traffic jams near the Koregaon Park area. The OPD Section took in all the patients, immediately attending to them with no documents or questions asked. While the patients were being taken in, the calls had already gone out from the GM, Mr. Sunder Vaswani, to their doctors and nurses.
The resident doctors, nurses, nursing superintendents & nursing students of its associated wing, Sadhu Vaswani College of Nursing, who were staying on the campus immediately converged at the Casualty and the ICU. Without delay they started rendering First Aid and medical help to the injured. The serious ones were rushed to the ICU.
The whole team of the hospital that comprised of Senior Consultants, Neuro Surgeon, General Surgeon, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Cardio-Thoracic Surgeon, Plastic Surgeon, Onco Surgeon, Physicians, Urologist, Dermatologist, Anesthetists, ICU Consultants and Radiologists were soon upon the scene to give their complete support and try and save as many lives as possible.
30 injured patients with minor injuries were given First Aid in the Casualty and General Ward and were relieved on stabilization.
Another 22 patients who were critically injured were brought to the hospital. The Hospital has 25 ICU beds and 20 were already occupied. But still these critically injured people were somehow managed in the ICU ward. 6 patients were sent to Sassoon Hospital when their condition was stable, due to insufficient ICU Support. Out of the remaining 16 patients, currently 8 patients are in ICU and 5 have been shifted to general wards as their condition was stabilized. Three patients succumbed to the injuries.
In addition to the above, 2 males were brought in dead and the 3rd patient died of grievous injuries immediately on reaching the hospital. After necessary documentation, the bodies were handed over to the police authorities.
3 patients with badly mutilated limbs were immediately taken to the Operation Theatre. A full team of Inlaks & Budhrani hospital surgeons battled hard but to save their lives had to take the unfortunate decision to amputate the limbs. The age of all the patients ranged between 20-30 years. Most of the patients had burns, fragmentation injuries, multiple fractures, etc.
The Drug Store was thrown open with no dearth in medical material and medicine supply. The Logistics Department opened up all the critical store facilities taking care that the treatment to these disaster victims was unhindered.
The Hospital Management is grateful to the enthusiastic and caring people of Pune who came in large numbers to donate blood for the bomb blast victims. The Management also expressed gratitude to the Police Authorities who ensured that the relatives and public was well informed at the Hospital to maintain law and order. Many Political Leaders came to the Hospital and offered their assistance.
The doctors and staff along with the budding ‘Florence Nightingales’ of the Sadhu Vaswani College of Nursing came together in a great display of teamwork working past the night to bring critical care and save lives at the time of disaster.
OUR DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILIES OF THE VICTIMS.
