Women delivers baby near lift in Noida hospital
November 17th, 2011 - 11:48 pm ICT by IANSNoida, Nov 17 (IANS) Denied admission in the emergency ward, a woman delivered a baby outside the elevator of a district hospital in Noida Thursday morning, her husband said.
Karuna, a resident of Sector 8 in Noida, gave birth to a boy while she was being taken to the out-patient department (OPD) from the emergency ward.
The hospital administration has formed a committee to probe the incident. “The case will be properly investigated from all angles. We are yet to record the statements of the patient’s family. A report will be submitted to the additional director of state health department soon,” said Chief Medical Superintendent Meena Mishra.
The woman’s husband Bashir said: “We first went to the emergency ward situated on the fourth floor. We told the doctors that her condition was bad, but they refused to hear us and asked us to take her to the OPD.”
“While we were bringing her down in the lift, her pain suddenly intensified and she started screaming. On seeing her collapse in the lift, we stopped it on the first floor and took her out of it. Within a few minutes, she delivered the child,” he said.
