1,254 infant, 45 maternal deaths in Koppal over three years

Koppal: Govt hospitals in Koppal district reported 1,253 newborn and 45 maternal deaths over the past three years, with one infant death occurring in a private hospital. Premature births and health complications were cited as causes. Health minister Dinesh Gundu Rao disclosed these figures in response to BJP MLC Hemalatha Nayak during question hour in the legislative council. The health minister stated that a total of 1,253 newborn deaths were reported, including 446 in 2022-23, 491 in 2023-24, and 317 in 2024-25. Except for one infant death at a private hospital in 2023-24, all cases occurred in govt hospitals in the district. Additionally, 45 maternal deaths were recorded between 2022-23 and 2024-25, attributed to various causes such as high blood pressure and bleeding during pregnancy. "These cases are an example of the state of the health sector in the district," criticised B Girishanand, district president of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (KRV). "The number of deaths in private hospitals is not easily available. Therefore, only one infant death has been shown. In reality, it cannot be ruled out that at least half of such deaths might have occurred there," he alleged. Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao identified premature birth, asphyxia during birth, complications due to low birth weight, lung infections, pneumonia, sepsis, jaundice, congenital problems, and heart and nervous system defects as causes of infant deaths. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo He also noted that maternal deaths resulted from high blood pressure disorders during pregnancy, bleeding, sepsis, heart-related diseases, multiple organ failure, and abortion infections. Rao detailed actions taken against doctors in other districts of the state regarding maternal and infant deaths in govt hospitals. Show cause notices were issued to a total of 11 doctors from hospitals in Davanagere, Yadgir, Tumakuru, Shivamogga, and Bengaluru Rural districts, including four in Kalaburagi and two in Ramanagara. The health minister emphasised that there is a system for conducting impartial investigations into such incidents. "The state-level maternal mortality analysis committee analysed 530 incidents last year. Accordingly, the infant mortality rate in the state is decreasing, and according to the SRS report of 2022, the infant mortality rate came down from 19 to 14 per 1,000 live births," he explained. Despite the high number of deaths in Koppal district, "no medical institution or doctor has been identified and disciplinary action has been taken," stated the health minister. There is considerable discontent in the district regarding the high rates of maternal and child fatalities and the govt's lack of disciplinary measures. "Numerous media reports have highlighted irregularities in Koppal's govt hospitals. The response from the health minister has confirmed this. So, who is accountable for this situation, and what repercussions will arise from these failures?" asks B Girishanand. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

7 million American men in their prime aren't working, or even looking - Mike Rowe explains the horror story

American prime-age men not working : American television host and philanthropist Mike Rowe drew a disturbing portrait of the American work force, terming it a "horror story" that's playing out quietly, according to a report. As per Rowe, about 7 million healthy-bodied men of prime working age are not only unemployed, they have even given up looking for work, as per Moneywise. Mike Rowe Highlights Growing Crisis in Male Workforce Participation He said, 'The stat that sticks with me and worries me today is 7.2 million able-bodied men, today in their prime working years, are not only unemployed … [they're] officially not even looking,' as quoted by Moneywise. This startling statistic, while not cited to the source by Rowe, points to an increasing issue regarding the involvement of men in the workplace, according to the report. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Secret to Never Losing Anything Again?

California Governor unofficially kicks off 2028 White House run Official Data Shows Millions of Prime-Age Men Not in Labor Force Official figures provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate that 3.3% of prime working-age men (between the ages of 25 and 54) were not engaged in the labor market as of June 2025, totaling approximately 2.2 million men, as reported by Moneywise. However, the data does not break down between able-bodied or those with health issues, according to the report. Live Events Why Are So Many Prime-Age Men Not Working? A 2024 survey by the Bipartisan Policy Center provides some answer, as per the report. More than half of nonworking men reported physical, mental, or behavioral health problems as the primary reason for not having a job, as reported by Moneywise. Almost 30% indicated they were unemployed by choice, and approximately 9% were taking care of other people, as per the report.

For Rowe, this disconnect is part of a larger imbalance in the labor market, especially the shortage of skilled tradespeople that threatens the country's economic stability, as per the report. To help close this gap, Rowe's foundation, mikeroweWORKS, has awarded nearly $12 million in scholarships to over 2,000 young Americans seeking training in critical trades since 2008, as reported by Moneywise. Could Better Health Benefits Bring Men Back to Work? But fixing the underlying causes is more than skills training. The Bipartisan Policy Center poll discovered that 52% of men who are not presently employed indicated that improved employer-sponsored health insurance coverage would be an important part of their going back into the workforce, according to the Moneywise report. That supports the need for enhanced workplace mental and physical health support, as per the report.

Doc & staffer attacked by patient's attendants at Lady Hardinge hosp

New Delhi: A doctor and an X-ray technician were allegedly assaulted by the attendants of a patient inside the emergency ward of Lady Hardinge Medical College's Sucheta Kriplani Hospital in central Delhi on Wednesday. Nobody has been arrested yet. According to a complaint filed by the hospital's additional medical superintendent, around 1.10am on Aug 13, a 40-year-old woman was brought to the emergency ward with injuries from an alleged fall from a moving train. It added that she was first examined by emergency medical staff, underwent a CT scan and an ultrasound, and was referred to the surgery department. The FIR states that during the treatment, the woman's condition deteriorated and she collapsed. At this point, her attendants, which, according to the complaint, included transgender people, allegedly became aggressive, claiming that doctors were not attending to her properly. They then attacked hospital staff, injuring a 26-year-old postgraduate doctor from the surgery department and a 30-year-old X-ray technician. Both sustained facial and upper body injuries.

The disturbance allegedly disrupted emergency services for nearly two hours. The complaint noted that security personnel tried to intervene, but were outnumbered. Police were called to the spot to restore order. A crime team visited the hospital and preserved CCTV footage as evidence. The statements of the injured staff and other eyewitnesses were also recorded. Police said a case was registered at Mandir Marg police station under sections 221(obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions), 132 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 121(1)(voluntarily causing hurt or grievous hurt to deter public servant from his duty) and 3(5) (common intention) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita as well as under Delhi Medicare Service Personnel and Medicare Service Institution (Prevention of Violence and Damage to Property) Act 2008. The cops were trying to trace and apprehend those involved in the assault. The resident doctors' association of LHMC stated that after the attack, it went on strike for increased security in emergency areas, restricted entry points and limits on patients' attendants. All elective services resumed after the administration assured that their demands would be addressed, it added. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
