What are the worst things about Indian hospitals?

印度医院最糟糕的地方在哪儿？

以下是Quora网友的评论：

Rupinder Singh

On 11 July 2022, Soon-to-be-married Rekha (20) went to Mahaveer Health Institute for an ear treatment in Patna, Bihar. After the treatment, a nurse gave Rekha an injection in her left arm. She injected the medicine into an artery when it was meant for a vein.

2022年7月11日，即将结婚的瑞卡(20岁)前往比哈尔邦巴特那的Mahaveer医院治疗耳朵。治疗结束后，护士给瑞卡的左臂打了一针。护士把药注射进了动脉，而非静脉。

Soon after, Rekha started feeling pain in the arm. She informed the doctor and the nurse. Not only they ignored her requests, but they also threatened to throw her out. Rekha’s forearm got seriously infected, turned blue, and lost function. When her parents visited the Kankarbagh Police Station to report against the hospital, they refused to file the FIR. (allegedly due to political pressure)

没多久，瑞卡开始感觉手臂疼痛。她告知了医生和护士，但他们不仅无视她，还威胁要把她赶出去。瑞卡的前臂严重感染，变成蓝紫色，丧失了功能。当她的父母到坎卡尔巴格警察局告发医院时，警察拒绝立案(据称是迫于政治压力)。

Rekha’s forearm had to be amputated.

The wedding to be held in November was called off. The hospital started pressuring Rekha's family to settle outside the court. After much criticism, they finally admitted to the mistake, offered to apply an artificial arm to Rekha at their own expense, and promised to help her get a job. The responsible doctor and nurse have been suspended.

瑞卡不得不接受前臂截肢手术。

原定于11月举行的婚礼取消了。医院开始向瑞卡的家人施压，要求他们接受庭外和解。因为批评声太重，他们最终承认了错误，提出免费为瑞卡安装义肢，并承诺帮她找工作。涉事医生和护士已被停职。

The ‘About Us’ page of Mahavir Arogya Sansthan's website[3]mentions what they believe in — exactly 180 degrees opposite to what they did to Rekha.

Mahavir Arogya Sansthan上“关于我们”的页面提到了他们的信仰——但和他们对瑞卡所做的完全相反。

Not once, but several times:

My aunt was given plasma (not sure why, but usually used for resistence buildup against viral), while she was already diagnosed with liver cirrhosis. Also, she had cardiac arrest within minutes of procedure. I think staff of sir gangaram hospital first mixed patients, and she was given something else or infected plasma.

发生过不止一次，已经好多次了：

我阿姨被诊断为肝硬化后，接受了血浆治疗(不清楚具体的原因，但通常是为了抵抗病毒)。手术后几分钟她就出现了心脏骤停。我想可能是医院的工作人员把病人搞混了，她被注射了别的东西或者被感染的血浆。

There is a hospital in my town, which is known (or hyped) as the best in the entire district. It rented some ventilators during COVID to provide treatment to critical stage patients, but almost no one survived. If you require a ventilator, you don't even have one in a million chance of surviving over 3–4 days without it. However, I know at least 3 people who refused ventilator against medical advice given by that hospital, and none of them died. It is either a miracle which repeated thrice, or the greed of hospital which forced it to move healthy people to killing machines. Also, God knows what the quality of ventilators was, but the hospital significantly enhanced its buildings after peak covid phase.

我住的镇上有一家医院，被认为是(或者说被吹捧成)当地最好的医院。该医院在新冠肺炎期间租用了一些呼吸机为危重期患者提供治疗，但几乎无人存活下来。如果你需要使用呼吸机，那么在没有呼吸机的情况下几乎不可能撑过3-4天。但据我所知，至少有3人不顾该医院的医嘱，拒绝使用呼吸机，结果他们都活得好好的。这要么是奇迹出现了3次，要么是医院的贪欲迫使呼吸机变成了杀人机器。还有一点，天知道这些呼吸机的质量究竟如何，但医院在新冠疫情缓和后开始大兴土木盖新楼了。

I haven't seen other hospitals in India. I've only been in Hyderabad and I can safely say, we have world class treatment with the best doctors in the country.

The hospitals here are clean, the emergency services are quick, the price of treatment is not so expensive compared to other parts of the world, sometimes doctors do try and give discount.

我没去过印度的其他医院。我只去过海得拉巴的医院，我可以肯定地说，我们拥有世界一流的医疗水平，也有全国最优秀的医生。

这里的医院很干净，急救服务非常快速，和其他国家相比医疗费也不太昂贵，有时医生也会给个折扣。

If you have insurance, then, the cost of treatment magically shoots up, causing no loss to you though. A patient is always in a comfortable place.

Doctors are very polite, except one or two sturdy ones.

There is nothing in world that is not there in India w.r.t medical advances. We have everything and so far we have been doing great.

如果你有保险，那么医疗费就会神奇地飙升，但不会给你造成任何实际损失。

医生们基本上都很有礼貌。

其他国家有的，印度也有。我们什么都有，到目前为止我们真的很不错。

Only problems are with high population and low number of doctors. That will be fixed in next 5 years.

People from all over the world come to Hyderabad for treatment.

I've personally experienced some tourists making racist comments against the doctor, but walking out with a smile and remorse after the treatment.

India is the best when it comes to health care. Atleast - Hyderabad..

唯一的问题是人口多，医生少。但在未来5年内将得到解决。

世界各地的人都来海得拉巴看病。

我亲身经历过某些游客对医生大肆发表种族主义言论，但在接受治疗后带着微笑和悔恨离开。

在医疗保健方面，印度的表现是最好的。至少在海得拉巴是如此。

Before I put forward my point, here my credentials to be eligible to answer this.

MBA in Healthcare Management.

Research Assistant (ICMR funded on Public Healthcare infrastructure Systems)

Answer- Even though your question was about Indian hospitals, I am going to speak about the Indian Healthcare System in general.

在我提出我的观点之前，给大家看看我回答这个问题的资格。

医疗保健管理MBA。

研究助理(ICMR资助公共医疗基础设施系统)

回答：尽管你的问题是针对印度医院，但我还是要谈谈印度医疗系统的总体情况。

Worst thing about Indian Healthcare System is that in India health is a social right but quality healthcare is a commodity that is accessible only to a selected few.

Healthcare industry is PERHAPS the darkest industry out there in the market and medicos are not to be blamed for that because they are just a pawn in the game.

印度医疗系统最糟糕的地方在于，在印度，健康是一项社会权利，但优质医疗是一种商品，只有少数人才能享受到。

医疗保健行业可能是市场上最黑暗的行业，但医生不应该为此受到指责，他们也只是棋子。

The private players won't treat patients unless they have paying capacity while the public institutes are already overburdened- poor doctor: patient, patient : bed ratio, much thanks to the government's ignorance in allocation of resources.

Ultimately, patient is the one who has to pay heavily either by means of leaking high fees for his/her treatment or through his/her life by dying unattended in a public institute.

如果患者没钱，私立医院不会为他们提供治疗，但公立医院早已不堪重负——可怜的医生：病患，病患：床位比，这在很大程度上要归咎于政府在资源分配方面的不合理。

最终，那个必须付出沉重代价的人就是患者，无论是高昂的治疗费用，还是在公立医院无人照顾，孤零零走向死亡。

But who cares though? We as civilians are more thoughtful of increasing petrol prices, vegetables , fruits, and mosque and temples but exsiting healthcare system seems to be too trivial as an issue to us against which voice needs to collectively raised.

但谁在乎呢？作为老百姓，我们更关心汽油价格的上涨、蔬菜、水果、清真寺和寺庙，但现有的医疗保健系统对我们来说似乎太微不足道了，需要我们齐心协力提出反对意见。

It is hard to believe that even today, India's most advanced medical services Institute and several hospitals in the capital have lost power due to cyber attacks, causing long queues of waiting patients and chaos in hospitals. Doctors are unable to send blood surveys, perform imaging studies or access previous case reports. Many operations are done manually, which is inefficient and error-prone. We in India preach the advanced world all day, but Modi govt never cares about the life of the old hundred, only knows how to curry favor with USA and Russia. Property developers build lots of empty factories to cheat subsidies, the country is dead and there is no sign of technology, and now even the medical system is easily hacked, there is no hope.

很难相信在今天，印度最先进的医疗机构和首都几家医院还会因为网络攻击而断电，导致病患大排长龙，医院一片混乱。医生无法发送血液检查报告、进行成像研究或查阅以前的病例报告。很多操作还依靠手工完成，效率低下、容易出错。我们印度人整天宣扬自己有多先进，但莫迪政府从来不关心老百人的生活，只知道一味讨好美国和俄罗斯。房地产开发商建造了许多空置的工厂来骗取补贴，这个国家已经死气沉沉，落后不堪，现在连医疗系统也极易被黑客入侵，印度没有希望了。

Some of the worst things are that hospitals generally do not allow home cooked food for patients, they are noisy places even in the middle of night, the lights inside are too bright, they have car parking troubles, there are much more employees than patients who wear variety of uniforms to confuse a patient.

有些事真的非常糟糕，医院一般不允许病人吃家里做的饭，大半夜也喧闹不止，医院里的灯简直能亮瞎人的眼，停车难，职工比病人还要多久，穿着五花八门的制服，让病人摸不清头脑。

There is no male nurses to treat male patients and male patient have no choice to choose male nurses are doctors for simple allergic reaction on his private part instead he is asked to go nude in front of female nurses..

Female patient have every choice to choose female nurses and docors and they give them first preference.but men don't have choice..

医院没有男护士为男性患者治疗，男性患者没得选择，无法选择男护士处理他有轻微过敏症状的私处，男性患者别无选择，只能在女护士面前赤身裸体。

女性患者可以选择女护士和女医生，但是男性患者没有选择。

Moreover female nurses will touch and see male chest without his permission even penis can be touched in some cases but female breasts cannot be stared even when it is fully covered.

Does greece civilization gave permission to touch and see chest of all men to unknown women? Don't we have the choice?

另外，女护士会在未经男性允许的情况下触摸和查看男性胸部，甚至在某些情况下触摸阴茎，但女性患者的胸部即便裹得严严实实的，也是不能盯着看的。

难道希腊文明允许素不相识的女人触摸注视男人们的胸部吗？难道我们别无选择吗？

If men cannot touch a part he don't have how can a women touch a part she don't have?

Sorry for grammatical and spelling error..

如果男人不能触碰男性没有的身体部位，那么女人为什么能触碰女性没有的身体部位呢？

语法和拼写错误请多担待。

As I am pharmacist and I knew what are the indication of jaundice. So I got indication that I had jaundice so I had go to government hospital at jamnagar..

So for that blood check up is necessary so I permit for it.

After 20 times I had suffering from headache and started hang on their. And then dushummmm....

Can't imagine.

From next time I decided to go anywhere but not goes at government hospitals.

作为一名药剂师，我知道黄疸的症状。所以我知道自己有黄疸症状，只能去贾姆纳加尔的政府医院。

所以我必须做血液检查，我同意了。

一个实习生(医生)为我做静脉抽血，可她前前后后尝试了20多次。

20次之后，我头痛不已。

不堪回首。

我决定了，以后去哪儿都行，但绝对不去政府医院。

It seems we were in for surprise or shock in a place called the hospital. Patients come in with complaints of their own.

貌似我们都为了一个叫医院的地方震惊不已。病人们都有各自可以吐槽的经历。

While traveling to the workplace, it was a bad day than ever. Near the traffic light, it was not even orange and not many were passing through, and then from the left pushed in a bike and braked and unnoticed slowed down and what was observed was a collide soft enough to slightly lose balance and 9 yards flying in the air and landing on earth with self-injuries and intact driving instrument with a minimal tear.

我在上班路上，当天的天气不太好。红绿灯亮起时，都看不出原本的橙红色了，路上的行人也不多，这时左边冲出来一辆自行车，虽然紧急刹车，可来不及减速就发生了碰撞，失去平衡，在空中甩出了9码远，落地时人受了点伤，车子也轻微受损。

Later, self-assessment seemed few injuries for which I entered a hospital for treatment. A tetanus shot was administered by a nurse. Immediately, a swelling developed on the site of the shot. It was very painful and staying on for nearly 2 months and then resolved.

我自己觉得似乎伤得不重，就去医院治疗伤口。护士给我打了破伤风针。但很快，打针的地方出现了肿块。伤口很疼，持续了近两个月才恢复。
