The roof of the main surgical ward which
contains the obstetrics and gynecology ward at
the Effia Nkwanta Hospital, Ghana has caved in
during surgery. The surgery which was being
undertaken on three pregnant patients had to
be halted when the unfortunate incident
occurred.
Doctors had to transfer the patients to the
Kwesi Mintim Hospital for the process to
continue. One of them died and some have
attributed her death to the incident. But the
Medical Director of hospital, Dr Kwau Ntodi
denied this. He said the lady could have died
even if the incident had not occurred because
she had a ruptured uterus. Her death,
therefore, he said, could not have been as a
result of the movement from the hospital to
another.
The medical officer who attended to the lady
upon arrival at the Kwesi Mintim hospital said
that the baby had already died before they
arrived at the hospital. The other two patients
are in good condition.
