The Delhi government has ordered deferring all planned surgeries to facilitate
addition of 1,000 beds to dengue wards in all state-run hospitals by Sunday .The
move, however, is likely to affect thousands of patients suffering from other serious
medical problems.Ambedkar Hospital in northwest Delhi's Rohini has already
closed down its operation theatres. Sources said the manpower and beds meant
for patients who were scheduled to undergo surgery have been diverted towards
treating dengue patients.
Lok Nayak Hospital, the biggest tertiary care hospital run by the Delhi government,
plans to curtail surgeries by 50% beginning Monday , confirmed Dr Y K Sarin, the
hospital's medical superintendent. He said staff nurses, OT technicians, resident
doctors of anesthesia and surgical wings who become surplus by curtailment of
surgeries will be deployed in fever wards.
“There is an emergency situation at hand, which has to be dealt with urgently. Elec
tive surgeries can wait,“ Sarin said.

Dr V K Khurana, the medical superintendent of Hindu Rao Hospital, the largest corporation-
run hospital in the city, also confirmed deferring of routine surgeries at the hospital.
Patients who had planned gynaecology , ENT, gastrointestinal, urology and plastic surgeries
are likely to be the worst affected by the government's decision.
“It is a knee-jerk reaction.Have the politicians who ordered for deferring elective surgery
indefinitely considered the effect it is having on patients who have waited for two to three
months to get operated,“ said a doctor at Ambedkar Hospital.
Citing the example of a 40year-old TB patient admitted in the hospital, the doctor add ed:
“It took five months for our nutrition team to increase his weight from 27 kg to 44 kg, the
ideal weight for conducting the review surgery . It was scheduled for September 14.But
due to the dengue rush, he could not be operated and is losing weight again.“
“At Lok Nayak, nearly 100 minor and major surgeries are conducted daily . There is waiting
time of two to three months in many departments, for example ENT. The decision to defer
planned surgeries indefinitely will hit the patient hard,“ said a doctor, who did not want to
be identified.

AIIMS, one of the busiest hospitals in the country and perhaps the world, has
asked its specialty departments to reserve two beds each for dengue
patients but it has not shut down operation theatres.
Public health experts say the current dengue crisis has exposed the poor
state of primary healthcare centres in the city due to which people are
forced to visit tertiary hospitals for minor illnesses. “Also, there is no prior
planning by government for tackling dengue, which happens every year. The
fact that it is likely to get worse this season due to its cyclical trend was
known and the government should have acted in advance,“ Dr P N Arora,
vice-president of the Association of Health Providers of India, said. He added
that only 10% to 20% of the patients visiting hospitals with febrile illnesses
suffer from dengue and fewer still require admission.
