July 26th, in front of door of the emergency room, reporter met AnAn’s (false name) father Yang Xumao. The sudden death of his lively daughter put him in great sadness(literal translation: barely want to live). But what hurt him more is the door of emergency room, regarded by him as the door of life, was closed to him. “I sent my daughter here much earlier.” Yang said, “But doctors on duty just refused to open the door of Emergency Room. They totally ignored my daughter. We’ve been waiting for more than an hour”
Yang Xumao, currently 50, comes from YuanXi Village Qi Town Shanxi Province (China). it took only a little more than 10min to come to Qi Town People’s Hospital by bus.
Yang told reporter “at night(evening) of July 25th, I took AnAn to the neighbor’s house to play. We adults played cards, AnAn played with neighbor’s child/children. after midnight, I felt it was a bit late and told AnAn to go home first. but just after a little while, my son came and told me AnAn was convulsing. Zhang Erbao, who was playing with cards with me then, drove us to People’s Hospital. It was before 1am when we arrived at the hospital.” Yang started to tremble, and his face changed color “Unbelieve it is, when we arrived at the emergency, no one even opened the door for us”
“After getting off the car, we hurried to executive officer’s duty room. we knocked at the door but no one replied. I then knocked at doors of doctors’ and nurses’ duty rooms. still no one replied. my daughter convulsed even worse. I was so anxious that I started to cry. ‘my daughter was ill, open the door!’ I shouted, still no one replied. I kicked the door of executive officer’s duty room. Then the door of the nurses’ duty room opened, a female came out. Seeing I was carrying a child, she knocked at doctors’ duty room’s door, saying ‘a child is dangerously ill, please come out and check her’. But she said ‘say, go to the pediatrics on the 4th floor’ without opening the door. I ran to the pediatrics, a doctor opened the door, had a look into my daughter’s eye and said ‘It’s hopeless, no possibility to rescue her’ I asked him to give a try, but he refused.” Yang describe his experience in the hospital.
Reponsibility: just 15min’s wait? amateur doctor?
Yan Benzhi, who charges the emergency room, says to the reporter, “I acknowledge this from doctors and nurses on duty as I wasn’t there yesterday”
“How long have AnAn and his father waited in hospital?” reporter asked.
“Just 15 min, as far as I know” Yan said.
Reporter interviewed Wang Jinqiao who was in charge of the medical department of People’s Hospital.
“About 1:45am they arrived at the hospital and waited for 15min” Wang said. “Bai Chuyu was our nurse on duty. After seeing the patient was a child, she informed the doctor on duty Zhao Zebin. Zhao wasn’t good at pediatric and says ‘hurry up to the pediatric’
At pediatric the child had already died, her pupil scattered(?), she was in algor mortis without heart beat or breath”
Reporter read about Zhao’s resume in the showcase “member of Chinese Medical Association…In charge of pediatric…is an expert of pediatric”
“Do you tried any measure to save her?” reporter asked?
“We’ve given her oxygen, electrocardiograph. but still we failed. we had tried to rescue her for half an hour.” Wang answered.
“When did the child arrived at the pediatric?”
“About 2am, we have the records”
“How long does it take to go to the pediatric from the emergency room?”
“Very short time, about 2min”
“What’s the child’s illness”
“Food poisoning, I’m not too sure about that”
When reporter asked to interview Nurse Bai and Dr Zhao, Wang said they’ve been on duty for 24h, exhausted, and don’t like to be bothered"
When the reporter was leaving Wang’s room, she suddenly said, “we can’t deny we have no responsibility, we’re responsible for it to a certain extent. after a full investigation we’ll punish those who’re responsible”
Witnesses: At least 30 or 40min
How long AnAn’s father were kept waiting in the hospital. the reporter interviewed patients in a ward near the duty rooms. all patients said in the early hours they heard a man screaming followed later by sobbing. they can’t remember what was the exact time, but he screamed for quite a long time, at least 30 or 40 min.
reporter interviewed Zhang Erbao, the driver who was with Yang in the hospital all the time. “I clearly remembered when we arrived at hospital it was before 1am, Yang kept knocking at doors for more than an hour” Zhang said “This is no hospital!”
