[Resolved]  Apollo Hospital, Bangalore — Medical Negligence & Death of Child

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

With lot of grief and a heavy heart I am bringing it to your notice that my child Master Advaith C. Kashyap aged 1 year and 4 months was admitted to Apollo Hospitals, Bannerghatta road, Bangalore-76 for hydrocele operation, which is a very simple procedure as per the doctors. Dr. Anand Alladi, a well known pediatraic surgen operated on the child. Dr.Thripti was the anesthetist. Initially we were assured that the procedure takes just half an hour and the child can be taken home by afternoon. On 5th January at 5.30 a.m. the child was admitted. The procedure took more than 2 hours to operate the child. After the operation the child was shifted to ICU and my wife was there with the child. The child was conscious, but distressed. Around 11-a.m. the drug Augmentine was given through I.V fluid. When this drug was administered no doctors or anesthetists were there. Only the nurse who was incharge pushed 300 m g of this medicine in to I.V. fluid, without testing dose. Afterrwords the child reactead having breathlessness and abnormal behaviour on the lap of the mother. Immediately mother was sent out and the child was put on ventilator. We do not know what happened, and when the doctors came there. Till 7 p.m. they said that they are trying their best to rescue the child, But around 7. P.m. they announced that he is no more.
Now because of his death the whole family is shattered and shocked because of medical negligence. We took a smiling, healthy and happy child and were made to take his body back home. Never take go to Apollo Hospital & Never go to Dr Anand Alladi.

Apollo Hospitals known for unethical pratices. They appoint Govt. doctors as consultants who are only part time doctors . These doctors do not work in Govt. hospital and also do not treat patient properly in pvt. hospitals . These pvt/corporate hopital are money making organizations. They do not have any ethics.DR.ANAND ALLADI WHO IS RESPOSIBLE FOR KILLING HELPLESS CHILD WORKS IN BANGALORE MEDICAL COLLEGE AS PROF. AND HEAD AND ALSO WORKS IN SEVERAL PVT.HOSPITALS DOING UNETHICAL PRACTICS. HE IS CRIMINAL AND SHOULD BE PUNISHED.
Its a shame that in an era of medical science scaling such great heights, innocent lives are lost for such simple ailments due to negligence on the part of hospitals.Had the staff been a bit dedicated and concerned, Advaith would have been with us.
Antibiotics have published and statistically known side-effects in the population.
The fact that not one doctor was present when the whole antibiotics were given to a baby shows the amount of careless, casual attitude Alladi and his team work with. This is such a horrible tragedy and could have been prevented with something like a stethoscope in a hospital.
Alladi hasn't monitored the child after surgery in the recovery while giving a potentially reactive drug... he sent a nurse! That is literally poisoning and he should never be allowed to work and should pay for this incompetent, irresponsible act.
Anand Alladi Paediatric MURDERER.
Apollo Hospitals Bangalore.
Stay away from this Doctor.
Words are not enough to describe what the child's parents/grand parents and family are going through. It is not easy to accept that--"we took a smiling, healthy and happy child and were made to take his body back home". The whole family is shattered and shocked because of medical negligence.

Could this have been avoided? Answer is "yes". If only they had tested the reaction to the antibiotic Augmentine and its dosage was closeley monitored. These are the most fundamental steps in the recovery process. This shows total negligence of the doctor, the hospital procedures and the entire team.

In a land of Dharma, it is only proper they all come forward without any further coaxing and admit as to what really happened and clearly explain what procedres are being adopted to prevent similar occurences.
That way these parents and family can derive at least some consolation that justice is being done and other parents do not have to go through these.

We pray to give strength to the parents and family of the bereaved and justice to prevail.
I agree - Alladi should step up and take responsibility.

Please note that he is also a consultant at Cradle hospital in Bangalore. Please stay away from him.
It is unfortunate that, even with credentials like AIIMS, Anand Alladi is incompetent and treats babies like parts in an assembly line.
These days doctors are after money. For the sake of money, they do not mind killing the innocent babies and keep the parents away and do not provide any information. Can he give the life of this baby who is precious for his family? The justice system should punish such doctors.
A good example of a doctor who thinks about money over the basic ethics of treating a patient who comes with a need to be TREATED for a disease.
It is very sad that we get to read in newspapers and articles that India has made progress in the delivery of Health care services. But in ground reality we stand no where . All o[censored]s need to raise our voice against Dr. Anand Alladi. "why, Dr. Alladi...u cud'nt save the baby. Why is that, not even a single doctor in Apollo hospital have the necessary art of knowledge to save this baby. Can u Dr. Alladi bring back the smile on the face of family of Murthy's ."
If the child has been administered a wrong medicine or a wrong dose it is totally the fault of the hospital which appoints the nurse. Dr Alladi would have had no say in the appointment of the nurse. Any one who knows the functioning of a hospital knows that it is impossible for any senior doctor to supervise the administeration of each and every drug. If Dr Alladi has prescribed the right dose ( which I believe he would have) and despite this a wrong dose has been administered then there is practically nothing he can do about it. It is totally the fault of the hospital to not have put checks in place to avoid mistakes or they have appointed an incompetent nurse
Your child is gone.BUT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO PUNISH SUCH DOCTORS AND HOSPITAL AUTHORITIES. SUE THEM !!! NEVER ENTER INTO ANY COMPROMISE .LET THE LAW PUT THEM IN JAIL .LET THE WHOLE WORLD KNOW ITS CONSEQUENCES
Now a days we dont see any difference b/w the real murderers and the doctors
So sorry to know about this tragedy - But I pose two questions :

1) why did the child need surgery - for inguinal hernia or some other medical concern.

Hydroceles in young boys ususlly does not need surgery.

2) Either of the above surgeries are clean surgeries and usually do not warrant antibiotic use and definiely not IV use - so why did ther child get IV antibiotics.

so, they need to get more info . and sequence of events that happened.

Its very disheartening to know that even such educated doctors who are top surgeons play with the lives just like that.. They are so inhumane by their attitude.. Had the parents and the family been completely informed about what were supposed to be done..The precious life of the kid would hve been saved. Those responsible should be sued to death. They should know what is the true pain of the people and the family who are suffering because of those near and dear ones who lost lives coz of MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE as per what the doctors or so called murderers have to say.. They all should be thought a lesson in life so as to not commit such mistakes which can not be repaired...
Having met the child recently... I was very happy for their family.
It's shame to the hospital officials of such good credentials. I wish that more publicity & awareness should made towards such incidents in order to educate & avoid such disasters in the future . We live with medical tourisim & other advancement towards health care, we are here to fully support you to bring justice to the family. We understand through this incident how presious everyone's life is & the doctors in who's hands we are lying our lives are being negligent & thoughtless...Is the ETHICS Committee sleeping at such a well known hospital...
It is really unfortunate that a very small child of 1 year was taken for a surgery and the doctors actually killed the child because of negligence. They should feel the pain of the family members by loosing a precious child. The doctors also should experience such a pain. They should be taught a lesson. Our law is very weak and doctors escape from all kinds of crime. but God will teach them a lesson
Dr.Anand Alladi should be punished for Medical negligence, some times i feel Sharia law suites best for this country.
I agree, my experience is similar but at Apollo hospital in Goa. The in charge was Dr. Rajesh Javherani, this individual is completely driven by MONEY and life of his patient is a secondary concern for him.
These days all hospitals are becoming hell instead of treating the patients with care, negligence is becoming very common. How common people can survive in this world?. Corporate hospitals are blood suckers.
Such doctors should be hanged to death...
