Oryol perinatal center, department of gynecology. An employee of the Oryol maternity hospital, where eight babies died: Moms celebrated the New Year so coolly that the children had no chance of surviving. Other medical institutions

From January 3 to January 18, 2016, eight newborn deaths were registered at the Oryol Perinatal Center. Then, on the fact of the death of babies, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation opened a criminal case under the article “negligence”. Federal agencies were involved in the investigation of this nightmarish episode, everyone was involved: from journalists to the prosecutor's office. The regional authorities created an interdepartmental commission, a commission from the Ministry of Health arrived from the capital, the prosecutor's office formed a working group of representatives of law enforcement agencies, including the FSB.
After the proceedings, the head physician of the Oryol Perinatal Center, Olga Pekhoto, was fired, and her deputy for clinical and expert work, Lyudmila Krylova, was put in her place. And already from June 1, 2016, the Perinatal Center lost its independence and was attached to the Scientific and Clinical Multidisciplinary Center for Medical Assistance to Children named after. Zinaida Kruglya (Children's Regional Hospital).
As you might guess, it is almost impossible for a journalist to get into the walls of such an institution. My second pregnancy fell exactly on this period, and I had to give birth in the renovated Perinatal Center. So I decided to take advantage of the situation and tell without embellishment about how the Oryol women in labor live.
Unfortunately, the new official of the center, Lyudmila Aleksandrovna Krylova, did not find an opportunity to communicate with me. But at a chance meeting, she gave full approval to my journalistic activities within the walls of the Perinatal Center.
Oryol perinatal center
The multidisciplinary medical center consists of a consultative and diagnostic department (women's consultation); obstetric, gynecological and day hospitals; departments of pathology; men's health center; family and youth center.
As soon as the pregnancy test showed two strips, I registered with the local gynecologist at the antenatal clinic of the Perinatal Center. All 9 months I was observed by an obstetrician-gynecologist Olga Valerievna Martynova.
Throughout my pregnancy, I went through absolutely all the examinations at the antenatal clinic of the Perinatal Center: I took tests, did an ultrasound scan, visited highly specialized specialists, did screening (detection of the pathology of pregnancy) and dopplerometry (ultrasound diagnostics that allows you to listen to the baby’s heartbeat during pregnancy and determine the condition of the vessels of the umbilical cord of the fetus) ; was kept in the hospital. As part of compulsory health insurance, all this is done free of charge.
After the 30th week, I was even prescribed Iodomarin for free, worth as much as 125 rubles. To get it, I had to go to the state pharmacy. I was met there by a line of several dozen people, so I left my Yodomarin to the state. By the way, during the entire pregnancy, more than 15,000 rubles were spent on medicines and vitamins from her own funds. And if not, whose employees brought me to Oryol a rare critically necessary medicine for relieving the Rhesus conflict at a very affordable price, it would have been hard.
There is one fat minus in the work of the antenatal clinic of the Perinatal Center: huge queues. Sometimes pregnant women have to wait up to three hours for an appointment. Many queues to the local doctor take an hour or two before the official appointment.
Well, I would give shoe covers to patients for free. It was about four years ago. Otherwise, there are no questions about the work of the clinic and the medical staff.
Department of pathology of pregnant women
Here, women lie on conservation, starting from the 18th week. Up to 18 weeks, pregnant women are placed in the gynecological department. The pathology department is clean and bright.
Chambers are different. I was in a triple room.
We had a spacious closet and bedside tables.
Wash basin.
Hospital beds.
Bed linen, blanket, pillows are provided. Linen can be changed weekly or as needed. The pillows here are terrible, I always bring my own. Chambers are cleaned daily. But under the sink, the floor does not inspire confidence.
Windows are often washed in the summer. The nurse works very hard. He does everything quickly so as not to create discomfort for us.
And from our window ... so far only the construction site is visible.
Builders are doing work on the bugs. Apparently, they forgot to design an entrance for wheelchairs. With curbs, by the way, there is a problem at all. There are no exits anywhere.
There are enough shared toilets in the department, but in some they forgot to put doors. Going to the toilet is usually necessary in the company. It's terrible that there are no at least the cheapest plastic harnesses. Toilets are literally ice cold. So take a toilet seat with you from home.
The hospital does all the important examinations, prescribes medications. Everything is free: pills, injections, droppers, ultrasound examinations, CTG, additional procedures (consultations of narrow specialists, for example).
All droppers are signed.
KTG office. Here, the fetal heart rate and uterine tone are checked.
The center has several ultrasound diagnostic rooms. In the photo, the ultrasound room of the pathology department. Ultrasounds are also done here for women in labor after discharge.
The office is equipped with a new modern apparatus. Thanks to 3D technology, already in the womb, you can see who the baby looks like.
The Perinatal Center has everything you need for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
Food in the hospital
The menu is incredibly varied. 1000 dishes can be prepared from the same product. From cabbage, for example, cook cabbage soup, lazy cabbage rolls, stewed cabbage. But for women in labor, for example, white cabbage is not recommended in any form.
Breakfasts here are hearty and tasty: every day a new porridge, a sandwich with butter and a piece of cheese (the latter is not given every day), a hot milk drink.
Lunch is always hot. A light dinner (casserole, scrambled eggs, boiled fish and chips, lazy cabbage rolls) is served at 17:00. It has been noticed that on weekends you can “oversleep” dinner, because. it is handed out at 4:30 pm.
This is the most delicious and favorite lunch for women: pickle soup and a cutlet with pasta (the second option is a cutlet with mashed potatoes).
Late dinner - kefir and cookies.
There is a strange rule in the pathology department: newly admitted women are not fed. I don't know what those who have encountered this for the first time are doing. Probably hungry. Experienced pregnant women take food from home.
The departments have large refrigerators. They are always stocked with food.
childbirth
My contractions started at 11:45 pm. Bypassing the maternity ward, I was immediately sent to the operating room. According to the indications, a caesarean section was due.
Resuscitation ward.
I’ll say a strange phrase now, but I liked it here. Comfortable beds, attentive and helpful nurses, freshness and cleanliness. When I was in the intensive care unit for 10 hours, they washed the floor and walls several times, wiped all surfaces.
Obstetric department
It accommodates young mothers with newborns.
Triple room. Very spacious. Nobody bothers anyone.
There are scales for newborns in the ward.
Here are some baby beds. Very comfortable.
Wash basin. Babies' ass is washed under a regular tap, as in all other maternity hospitals.
Minus: blinds disappeared somewhere. There are no screens on the windows.
There is also a paid single room in the department. It costs 2,300 rubles per day (as written on the website) and 2,800 (as I was told at the department). Of the amenities in a small paid ward, only a washbasin and a bathroom. Shower is shared.
For comparison. This is how a single ward looks like in a Bryansk maternity hospital. There is even a sofa for guests.
Here are the newborns before they are given to their mothers.
The maternity toilet is not equipped with doors. There are only two bathrooms per unit. Once I even got in line.
This is what the staff toilet looks like. Newly renovated, separate cabins. The doors are closed. Only the staff has the key.
A neonatologist visits the children every day.
About the work of the staff of the center
As for the care, or rather the work of the staff, the Perinatal Center is divided into two camps. There are those who, with their rudeness and inaction, make pregnant women and women in labor sad. For example, a doctor may refuse to help a pregnant woman (who asks for it) with the words: "My shift is over." I noticed how the nurses were frankly rude to the patients. Or the hostess in the pathology department, who totally controls the light turned on in winter, bags on the floor, things on the windowsill, often swears with pregnant women.
Many women in the day hospital resented the ban on the use of blankets, but this seems to be another unspoken rule of the pathology department. True, such remarks do not apply to the direct provision of medical care.
The other part of the staff are excellent and responsive professionals. I am incredibly satisfied and grateful to the nurses and midwives of the pathology, operating room, intensive care and obstetrics departments.
The staff in the midwifery department is very correct and organized. Fully taken into account the characteristics of patients in childbirth. The fact is that at the first call “for lunch”, “for injections”, “to the procedural” women in labor cannot come up. And they treat us with understanding, they will always wait and help.
From the perinatal center I had a double impression. On the one hand, there is a new repair all around, on the other hand, everything is somehow halfway. For example, they made new toilets, and only the employees of the center have the opportunity to walk in them; beds were not replaced everywhere; there are comments on the menu and the organization of the time of patient service (queues in the antenatal clinic).
Anticipating the issue of bribes, I will say this: I have not come across this. The sums that are whispered about in the wards, I was personally baffled. Terrible tales like: “if you don’t give the anesthesiologist before the operation, he will inject badly and it will hurt you ...” Well, not nonsense? In my case, the issue of anesthesia, for example, was resolved within 5 minutes. The anesthesia was spinal. The anesthesiologist during the operation was constantly interested in my well-being, monitored the pressure, joked, and distracted me during the operation. I didn't even get to ask his name.
And literally I am in love with my doctor Irina Afanasyevna Kuznetsova. Thank you, dear doctor, for the miracle of motherhood!
p.s. This is my second birth. The first were in the city maternity hospital on Posadskaya. I am very grateful to the head of the pathology department, Galina Valentinovna Odintsova. Thanks to her experience, knowledge and confidence, Repka was born.
For some reason, the official website of the Perinatal Center is not working now.

The information that babies are dying en masse in the Oryol regional perinatal center shocked the inhabitants of not only the Oryol region, but the whole of Russia. According to preliminary data, during the New Year holidays from January 1 to January 12, seven babies were declared dead at the medical facility. Now there is a prosecutor's check. Experts are not in a hurry with conclusions, it is quite possible that behind the terrible figures is not the negligence of doctors at all, but a fatal combination of circumstances. Simply put, we still need to figure out whether the dead babies had a chance to survive. As KP managed to find out, all seven babies were born prematurely. - Each of the deaths will be checked. First of all, it is necessary to find out the level of viability of the dead babies, - said "KP" Mikhail Mikheykin, head of the Oryol regional department of Roszdravnadzor.
The term of the audit is limited to twenty working days. However, it is possible that the first conclusions will be made in a shorter time frame. Without waiting for the results, the Oryol Investigative Committee opened a criminal case. - On the fact of the death of babies, an investigation is underway under the article "negligence", - said "KP" Yulia Dorofeeva, senior assistant to the head of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Oryol Region. It should be noted that the Oryol perinatal center is considered the best maternity hospital in the region. All the young mothers of Orel and the region, without exception, dream of giving birth there. The hospital is equipped with the latest technology. There is also a department for premature babies. Moreover, it is famous for the fact that doctors nurse crumbs with a maximum weight of five hundred grams. The head physician of the hospital Olga Pehoto refrained from official comments. However, "KP" managed to contact one of the midwives of the perinatal center: - Young mothers came to us from villages and remote villages in the region. Some of them were not observed at all by a gynecologist. Babies were born unviable, they had no chance. Why? It's simple: mothers celebrated the New Year to the fullest, ”explained a hospital employee who asked KP not to indicate her first and last name. This information is confirmed by the findings of forensic medical examinations. As sources close to the investigation told KP, all seven children had diagnoses that were incompatible with life. These are premature babies born at 27 weeks of gestation. Interestingly, none of the mothers of the dead babies filed a complaint with law enforcement agencies.
While the hospital was checking, on January 17, another baby died. This is the eighth case since the beginning of the year. As KP managed to find out, the baby was also premature, but the mother's gestational age allowed him to leave in a special incubator. EXPERT OPINION People who understand medicine know that on New Year's Eve, the risk of preterm birth is especially high. The reason for this is the non-compliance of young mothers with a diet. Childbirth can provoke a banal glass of champagne on New Year's Eve. - Unfortunately, it is the disregard for pregnancy that most often causes premature birth. Moms during the holidays often forget about elementary rules: they abuse alcohol, heavy food, and even go to discos, - told KP gynecologist Tatyana Kiseleva.- As for prematurity of children, the period of less than 29 weeks is the most severe - the fourth degree. The chance of surviving a baby born at less than 25 weeks is considered negligible.
OFFICIALLY
"Negligence was not revealed!"- According to preliminary data, all cases of death of infants are associated with diagnoses incompatible with life. Signs of negligence of doctors were not revealed, - reported "KP" Alexander Lyalyuhin, head of the health department of the Oryol region.- The dead babies had severe pathologies of the kidneys, lungs and genetic diseases. We are talking about premature babies. Childbirth in women was taken at terms from 27 to 34 weeks. The inspection did not reveal any infections or any other serious violations.
In total, 70 babies died in the Oryol region in 2015. However, infant mortality rates do not exist, each case of death is investigated in the most thorough manner.
- The most severe patients get to the perinatal center. Basically, these are pregnancies complicated by pathologies. It is also to us that women in labor with premature births from the entire Oryol region are brought to us, ”an employee of the Oryol perinatal center told KP. - Of course, eight cases of death of babies since the beginning of the year, this is a lot, but believe me, this is just a fatal combination of circumstances. All children had severe developmental pathologies, including genetic ones.
According to the woman, doctors were delayed from operations due to the fact that she was a “free” patient
One of the patients, whose son died there in September 2014, gave an exclusive interview to Komsomolskaya Pravda. We changed the woman's name for ethical reasons. The first long-awaited pregnancy from a beloved man, a conscious age of 28, no toxicosis and pathologies, it would seem that everything with Elena Sviridova should have ended well. She came to the Oryol perinatal center at 40 and a half weeks - herself.
I understood that to give birth from day to day and decided to play it safe and lie down for preservation. It was August 20th. They examined me, did an ultrasound, diagnosed me with oligohydramnios and put me in the pathology department, - Elena told KP. It doesn’t fit in my mind, but there a woman who was given the deadline for childbirth on August 23 in the antenatal clinic lay there for two weeks. - All this time, my stomach was pulling, I told the doctors, but they advised me to endure. I felt really bad on August 28, the pains were such that I could even climb the wall. Then they gave me a labor-stimulating drug, it did not help, and a day later they brought me a second pill. All this time I was writhing on the bed in hellish torments. At about 2 am on September 1, I could not stand it and came to the doctor on duty. I was then afraid to look at myself in the mirror: my lips were bitten to the point of blood. But this was my first birth, so I didn’t panic too much, I thought that it should be so. The doctor on duty examined me and sent me back to the ward, telling me to be patient. This went on until six in the morning on September 1. Then the doctor examined me again, after which, saying that the disclosure of only “two fingers” sent me to the delivery room, Lena recalls with tears. The woman is sure that it was there that her little son began to choke. Lena will be assured that for about an hour in the delivery room she was absolutely alone: no doctors, no obstetricians, no nurses. - Connect the CTG apparatus to the stomach and leave. I myself monitored the heartbeat of the child. The baby was beating strongly in the stomach and every minute his heartbeat was weak, - recalls the woman who lost her child. - And then the doctor came in, he started shouting to prepare the operating room. By that time, the sensor showed only 40 heart beats. Take me on the couch, it was clear that the doctors were visibly nervous, and I was also frightened, but no one explained anything to me .... According to the woman, she had to wait about 20 minutes in the corridor until the operating room was free. She is sure that it was those moments that became fatal for her son. They still saddled her with a caesarean section. But, alas, the baby was already dead. “I was told that he suffocated, and officially the conclusion of death is “sheathed attachment of the umbilical cord,” the heartbroken mother told KP. The boy was born full-term: height 51 centimeters and weight more than three kilos. On the same day, September 1, the father of the child, Lena's civil husband, wrote a statement to the Investigative Committee. But, alas, six months later they received a refusal to initiate a criminal case. Lena is sure that the doctors killed the child, who delayed the operation until the last. In fact, she partly blames herself. - I was a free patient, which is probably why they didn’t stand on ceremony with me, and they didn’t want to do a cesarean. Now, of course, I regret it, I had to look for a good doctor to negotiate. It’s not that I decided to save money, to tell the truth, we simply didn’t have money then. Lena does not lose hope of punishing the doctors; now, together with her husband, they are preparing a civil lawsuit in court. HAVE AN OPINION Orlovtsy lively discuss the situation with infant deaths. Orlovchanki share their own experience of childbirth in the perinatal center. Anna I gave birth to the eldest daughter in Botkin, and the youngest two years ago - in the perinatal center. For me, this was a huge difference. And if I once again faced the choice of where to give birth - only on Veselaya. By the way, it was not for nothing that half of the doctors from Botkin fled to the perinatal center. Great attitude, completely different environment and professionalism. I am not defending anyone, but there is simply something to compare with. The treatment of women is excellent. And the chief doctor is an amazing woman who created a cozy homely atmosphere in a state institution - and this is important. And about the caesarean - it seems to me that this is such nonsense. In my case, the doctor specifically stimulated the birth, because the child was large, and two days later I would have had to do a caesarean - in order to avoid this, he took such measures and did not ask for money for it!
Svetlana I can’t believe it, I can’t judge the maternity hospital itself, we are going there in a couple of months, but professionals in their field work in the diagnostic clinic, I am very grateful to them. In the queue at the registry, you can often hear that people do not want to go to the antenatal clinics of the city, but want to get an appointment at the perinatal center. I don't think it's worth judging without knowing what really happened. Yes, and they like to let us hear. Let the prosecutor's office figure it out, and the media will follow this situation, and then it will be possible to draw conclusions. Kseniya I gave birth to two children there and I have not seen more attentive doctors. It's easy to blame doctors for everything. Literally in October she gave birth to a baby there. The fact that there many gave birth to premature babies is a fact. When I was born children weighing 1,500 grams or less. Maybe women have become sicker, not doctors, and the fact that every second with a caesarean is also a fact.

After the holidays, I went to pathology for planned preservation at the perinatal center and later to gynecology, since at 16-17 weeks the baby froze. During the week they kept it, I repeatedly complained of pain, to which they answered that I was too suspicious. As a result, on the night of January 14, I got into surgery. Later, he said that he was extremely indignant that my leading doctor did not notice not only frozen, but also incipient peritonitis. The child could have been saved if she received nutritional droppers in a timely manner to support him with my complex form of toxicosis.
The Oryol Perinatal Center is the leading obstetric facility in the region; established in 2008 on the basis of the Oryol regional maternity hospital.

From Guest
As it turned out, being in the Orel Perinatal Center, like childbirth, can be classified into 3 stages: 1) Stay in the pathology department. Thank you very much to the staff of the Pathology Department. Everyone is very nice, friendly and approachable. The cleaning of the ward was daily and conscientious, and began with the phrase "Good morning, girls." The food is good, only less cabbage, because heartburn from it tortured everyone)))) 2) Childbirth. Many thanks to Bystrov Nikolai Aleksandrovich for his help in the birth of my son. Thank you for your competence, patience, responsiveness and tact in working with people! 3) Being in the postpartum ward (in my case, this is the 3rd floor). Everyone knows that quality is made up of details, so I don’t know what to indicate in order to be correct. I can only say thank you for the fact that they wrote out immediately. Dear mothers, take with you to the maternity hospital, in addition to everything that is indicated in the list of things located in the emergency room of this institution, the following: 1) A pacifier; 2) A mixture and a bottle (milk does not come immediately, but until that time, you will have to feed it with what you have - colostrum. Yes, it is useful, but it is very small. This baby will not be enough and he will be hungry, but take the mixture on this 3 floor is akin to a quest. And is it worth it? Because it’s not clear what they mix there, but that mixture makes the stomachs hurt terribly in children, so buy something normal yourself); 3) Silicone breast pads (they cost a penny (I took 65 rubles), but they really save from damage and help those who have flat nipples); 4) A kettle or a kettle, because you will have to wash pacifiers and bottles for the baby, as well as make tea for yourself (black tea + sugar helped me with the arrival and amount of milk); 5) Patience. Read the list of prohibited foods on the Internet if you are planning to breastfeed. not everything that is given in the hospital can be eaten in this case. Easy childbirth and happy motherhood to you!
