KARIMNAGAR: The reported non-functioning of emergency equipment at Jagtial Government Hospital has raised concerns after former Jagtial municipal vice-chairman Md. Yusuf died following a heart attack.
Yusuf reportedly collapsed near the new bus stand after suffering a massive heart attack. Local residents shifted him to Jagtial Government Hospital.
Hospital staff conducted an ECG test, but reportedly could not obtain a printout from the machine. The CPR machine, used for chest compressions, was also said to be non-functional.
Yusuf died shortly afterwards. His family members expressed anger over the reported failure of vital equipment during the emergency and questioned the hospital’s preparedness to handle patients with serious conditions.
However, it is learnt that Yusuf had died before reaching the hospital. The circumstances surrounding his death and the reported condition of the equipment require clarification.
