On the evening of August 8, a representative of the Central Hospital of the Central Highlands (Đắk Lắk Province) confirmed that they are investigating the case of a 2-day-old girl who died at the facility.
Mr. L.V.T (Ea Knuếch Commune, Krông Pắk District, Đắk Lắk Province) informed that his family is requesting the relevant authorities to clarify the cause of death of his daughter at the aforementioned hospital.
At 5:00 PM on August 2, his wife gave birth to a girl weighing nearly 2 kg at the Central Hospital of the Central Highlands. After giving birth, the doctor reported that the baby was healthy and had no abnormalities.
Approximately at 9:00 AM on August 3, his daughter T was taken to receive a hepatitis B vaccine. At 11:00 AM on the same day, his daughter T was feverish, so Mr. T called a nurse to check and was told that everything was fine.
However, his daughter T continued to have a high fever and a pale complexion. At 5:00 PM on the same day, his daughter Trang was taken to the emergency room due to a high fever and convulsions.
"At dawn on August 4, the doctor reported that his daughter had heart failure, kidney failure, sepsis, and a congenital heart defect. At 9:25 AM on August 4, the doctor reported that his daughter had died. Throughout the pregnancy, Mr. T took his wife to regular check-ups and did not find any abnormalities in the fetus.
After his daughter was born, the doctor also reported that the baby was healthy. The symptoms of fever and abnormal behavior only appeared after the hepatitis B vaccine was administered," Mr. T explained.
Therefore, Mr. T requested the Central Hospital of the Central Highlands to clearly answer the cause of death of his daughter.
