The deaths of infants in the Children's Hospital of Ycaza Francisco Bustamante of
Guayaquil are scared to mothers who have their children in the center of attention.
Elsa Zambrano said his daughter, Maria de Jesus, who was 8 months old, died in that nursing home after entering with flu symptoms. The woman did not understand how [her] small [baby] perished from a disease she was deemed not serious.
Although the body of the child was buried in Balzar (Guayas) there are other mothers who say they have highlighted the deaths of more than 10 in just 15 days in the same nursing home, where official figures of deaths are not known to media.
In the nursing home, there is uncertainty because mothers say they feel nervous and worried about the fate of their children can run, especially when nobody gives them timely information.
Toala Grace said his son arrived with a problem of pneumonia, but then told that the child suffers from kidney problems. "I say this and to wait for the arrival of a specialist, but I have fear because I have seen 10 babies die within 15 days," she said. Rodíguez Rosa, another mother, believes that there is negligence in care because children do not reach the hospital as serious. "Inside was worse, do not know what happens," said the woman, while the hospital authorities decided not to rule on these allegations that are added to neonatal deaths recorded in recent months.
Unit change
In Loja, however, the situation is otherwise, as the new infrastructure of the Hemodialysis Unit of the Hospital Isidro Ayora was released by the newborns. Since Thursday the mothers of the babies come to breastfeed their children in the new area, which is located near the Emergency entrance.
José Miguel Cobos, acting director of the hospital, reported that as of yesterday there were 10 infants in the care of doctors and nurses. As soon as the newborns were taken, the work was scheduled in the area of neonatology to improve these facilities, which were criticized in the wake of death of infants between December and January this year.
The director of the nursing home recalled that the unit where they are cared for infants underwent a rigorous process of sepsis. He said the infrastructure has to give attention guarantees that require newborns.
It noted that the Hospital Unit is about 20 meters, approximately, and that is what they have to walk for mothers to care for their children.
