The Investigative Committee is conducting an investigation into the death of a nine-year-old boy in Grodno. On June 11, the child died in one of the medical institutions of the regional center, where he was transferred from the Berestovitsa Central District Hospital. Before the boy was admitted to the hospital, he was vacationing at a summer camp. It is known that the child lived in the Berestovitsky district. At the moment, law enforcement officers are carrying out a number of necessary measures aimed at clarifying the circumstances of the incident. The boy's relatives told Onliner.by about what happened. _ Now Vlad’s family lives in the village of Pogranichny, Berestovitsky district, in a modest house with his grandmother. At home elder sister deceased boy, Natasha, she graduated from ninth grade this year.

“He was in the hospital in the infectious diseases department - Vlad had a very strong cough,” the girl recalls. - Then he was transferred to the children's department. He spent a week there and was discharged - they said that Vlad was healthy. After that, he felt fine: he played, ran, behaved as usual. Then the social service told us that Vlad should be sent to a camp. His stepfather drove him. Vlad stayed there for two or three days, and he became ill.

Moreover, the camp didn’t even say that the child had a temperature of 39.5; no one called the parents. I had just arrived at that time to visit my brother - I didn’t even know that he had a fever, I just brought Vlad cookies. I was told that he was in isolation with a high temperature and that he had been given an injection. Vlad was taken from the camp to the Berestovitsa regional hospital, where he was kept in the emergency room for a very long time.

The Berestovitsa regional hospital denies this information.

“When the boy was taken to the hospital with complaints of abdominal pain, there were no relatives with him,” Deputy Chief Medical Officer Yanina Skrundevskaya told Onliner.by. - We did everything necessary: ​​tests, pictures, called specialists. We are currently conducting an internal investigation; the Investigative Committee has seized all documents.

Andrey, Vlad's stepfather, recently returned from work - the man often goes to Russia and works in construction. He says that the boy was indeed in the infectious diseases department on the eve of his trip to the camp.

- A week before the camp, he was discharged from the infectious disease hospital - he was there from May 23 to May 30 with bronchitis. “I came out of there healthy and didn’t cough anymore,” says Andrey. - Before the camp, we were examined by doctors in Pogranichny - they said that Vlad was healthy and gave him a certificate. In Grodno, we took a certificate of vaccinations and sent the guy to the camp. That is, he arrived there healthy. And then this happened... At the Berestovitsa hospital, I went into the intensive care unit without asking, and they kicked me out of there. But I saw Vladik, and he didn’t even recognize me. Then Grodno doctors arrived and took him to the intensive care unit at the regional hospital. There he died...

Vlad’s mother is now in intensive care in Grodno; yesterday she was transferred from Vaukavysk - the woman is due to give birth soon.

“I told my wife about what happened, she, of course, took it all very hard…” says Andrey.

Let us remind you that a 9-year-old boy became ill at the Berestovitsky health camp. From there in the morning he was taken to the Berestovitsa regional hospital, and in the evening he was taken by ambulance to the Grodno Regional Children's Hospital and transferred to artificial ventilation. It was not possible to save the boy. The Investigative Committee is conducting an investigation into the death of the child.

MINSK, June 16 – Sputnik. The investigation into the death of a nine-year-old boy who was vacationing in the Berestovitsky camp is being carried out by commissions of the Ministry of Health and the Investigative Committee, the chief physician of the Grodno Regional Children's Clinical Hospital Sergei Tarantsey told Sputnik.

The incident occurred in the Berestovitsky district. The day before, on Saturday, a child whose health had worsened was brought from the Berestovitsky camp first to the Berestovitsky hospital, and then to the Grodno regional children's hospital. There he died.

“The commissions of the Ministry of Health are working, the Investigative Committee is working,” Tarantsey said.

Delivered by the resuscitation team

The interlocutor told the agency that the patient arrived to them in serious condition. And the doctors did everything necessary in terms of diagnosis and treatment.

“This is not a situation when there should be any comments... Yes, there was such a child. Yes, he was taken from the Berestovitsa hospital by the resuscitation team. Yes, in serious condition, yes, to the intensive care unit. Everything that is necessary in diagnosis and treatment, Unfortunately, he died on Sunday, June 11,” Sergei Tarantsey commented on the situation to Sputnik.

All diagnoses and conclusions will be made after a forensic medical examination, he added.

As the official representative of the USC for the Grodno region, Sergei Shershenevich, told Sputnik, the necessary examinations have been appointed on the fact, in particular, forensic examinations. Are being interviewed medical workers relatives who provided assistance to the child. Medical documentation is seized and carefully studied, and other procedural actions are carried out. Conclusions will be made only after receiving and analyzing all the data.

In the camp - everything is as it was

The Berestovitsky camp refuses to comment on what happened. Head Alexander Torgonsky told Sputnik that the institution is operating as normal.

“In the camp everything is as it was,” he said.

As reported in the media, before visiting the camp, the boy was lying with bronchitis in the infectious diseases department of the Berestovitsky district hospital. After discharge I felt well. With a certificate stating that he was healthy, he was sent to a camp where the child stayed for two days, after which he became ill. The boy developed a fever and was put in the camp isolation ward and given an injection. Then the patient was taken to the Berestovitsa district hospital, where he was kept in the emergency room for a very long time, relatives of the deceased told reporters.

It is reported that the boy was youngest child in the family, he has a sister and brother. The mother is now in the maternity hospital and is expecting another child.

The mother of a child who went healthy to a children’s camp near Berestovitsa and then died in the hospital, found out how her son spent his last day of life, writes Sputnik.by.

“I am the mother of Vladik Dudovsky. Recently discharged from the hospital. I want to find out what happened to my son,” Lyudmila asked the doctors from Berestovitsa with this question. The woman spent the whole day in the district hospital and learned that her 9-year-old child, who has a visual disability, was wearing a diaper for a reason unknown to her, and the doctors could not put him in the infectious diseases department because it was not working.

Vladik comes every night and asks: “Mom, don’t cry!”

“I myself have only recently been discharged from the hospital. I know what happened to Vladik from the stories of my daughter, relatives and random witnesses who saw him then. We were told that Vladik waited for a very long time in the emergency room at the Berestovitskaya hospital until he was assigned to a ward and prescribed treatment. This doesn’t give me peace,” says Lyudmila on the road from Grodno to Berestovitsa.

Lyudmila's son Vladislav died suddenly four months ago. Since then, the woman practically did not leave the hospital and could not even attend the child’s funeral. First, she was in the maternity hospital with a difficult pregnancy, then with a prematurely born baby, then with increased blood pressure due to nervousness.

According to the woman, she always thinks about the day when her son became ill and tries to understand at what point everything went wrong. After all, before going to the camp the child was healthy, there is a certificate. Lyudmila admits: she doesn’t sleep at night, takes antidepressants and wants to find out why doctors were unable to detect and cure a common cold in time.

“I started having problems with blood pressure. The doctor said it was due to nerves. And the priest in the church advised us to think of Vladik as if he were alive. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get out of this grief,” adds Lyudmila.

Almost every night her son comes to her in her dreams and talks. He never liked to see his mother's tears. And now every time he asks: “Mommy, don’t cry, otherwise I won’t come to you.” “It’s for his sake that I try to hold on,” says the mother.

Why did the boy wear a diaper?

The woman came to the Berestovitsa hospital with questions: why it was not possible to save Vlad, and how he spent the last day of his life. She is afraid that in the case of the death of her child there may not be any culprits at all. And everyone will blame it on weak immunity or force majeure, as the doctors at the district hospital were trying to explain to her now.

“What can I tell you? We told the Investigative Committee everything,” or “Let the authorities tell you,” was how the doctors responded in carbon copy to the mother’s request to provide at least some details. But looking at a woman with infant in their arms, they began to communicate.

For example, the surgeon told the mother interesting fact. When he came to examine Vladik, he saw that he was wearing a diaper, and the smell from it was unpleasant. The mother is surprised: “My son has never had enuresis. What is this for?

According to the doctor, that morning the boy was lethargic and had to be asked questions several times. The doctor even decided that the boy had developmental disabilities.

But Lyudmila explains that this is not like him: “The son was very smart, quick, sociable, he always spoke quickly.”

The doctor told the mother that the boy was sent from the emergency room to intensive care. There they discovered that he was not giving urine; this seemed incomprehensible, so they decided to send the child to Grodno.

True, none of the other doctors with whom the woman spoke confirmed the words about the diaper. And the nurse from the camp, and the doctor on duty, and the deputy chief physician for medical affairs assured that this could not happen, because there were no diapers either in the hospital or in the camp.

Waited from 06:30 to 9 am?

A nurse from children's camp around 06:30 am on Saturday, June 10th. And half an hour later she went back, leaving the child with local doctors.

She explained to the mother that the boy felt unwell the day before - on Friday afternoon he had a fever and vomiting. The child was placed in isolation, but in the evening they were taken to dinner; the child did not refuse food. She remembers that the boy, despite the prohibitions, got and ate a chocolate bar somewhere, and suggested that it could have made things worse. He spent the night in isolation to rule out suspicion of an intestinal infection.

“The night passed calmly, and at about 6 in the morning the temperature rose sharply, his stomach hurt, and I took him to the hospital with suspected appendicitis,” explained nurse Elena.

She recalled that the boy did not want to go to the hospital, on the way he assured that he felt better, and in the emergency room he asked: “Aunt Lena, take me back.”

“Agree, a sick child will not ask to go back to camp,” added Elena. But the mother is sure that her son was simply making up excuses so as not to end up in a hospital bed again.

Lyudmila managed to find a doctor who was finishing his night shift when Vladislav was brought in. The doctor said that she immediately called all the necessary specialists, and claimed that at that time everything that was possible was done at the level of the emergency room of the district hospital. According to her, before 8 a.m. the boy was examined by specialists (pediatrician, surgeon and others), and a blood test was taken. At the end of her duty, the child’s diagnosis was unclear.

The mother tried to find out how much time the child spent in the emergency room, but the only thing she managed to find out was that the boy was supposed to be sent to the ward at about 9 o’clock in the morning.

“It turns out that he waited at least two to two and a half hours for the specialists’ decision,” the mother calculated.

The whole department was closed during the holidays

Most doctors assured that the child felt well. But from the emergency room, Vladislav was sent not to a regular ward, but to intensive care. The doctors explained that this was a forced decision.

According to them, the child was supposed to be admitted to the infectious diseases department. But at that time it was closed, and its employees were on vacation. The hospital clarified that it is common practice for them to close an entire department during the holiday period.

The deputy medical doctor tried to explain to the woman that the child was being treated. In particular, symptomatic treatment was carried out. The boy was observed by a resuscitator. In the afternoon we took repeated tests, gathered a consultation and came to the conclusion that we needed to contact our Grodno colleagues.

“There were indirect signs indicating the presence of the virus, leukocytes were reduced, but this was not paid attention to at first. He was given antibiotics, but they have no effect on the virus. IN Grodno boy They brought me closer to six o’clock in the evening,” said the deputy head physician.

The mother asked: “Why weren’t they taken to the regional hospital earlier?” The doctor explained that Vladik was observed by an experienced doctor who was trying to understand the clinical picture, and by about two o’clock in the afternoon it became clear to him that the case was too complex and incomprehensible.

The hospital is confident that they will punish you to the fullest extent.

The head physician of the Berestovitsa hospital spent about 5 minutes with the mother of the deceased Vladislav Dudovsky. She explained that investigators took all the medical documentation, the Ministry of Health was checking, and now they themselves will decide who is to blame in this story. The manager herself did not undertake to judge whether the medical personnel subordinate to her acted correctly.

Many doctors in Berestovitsa are sure that the punishment will be very severe.

“This case is being monitored in Minsk, no one here will escape responsibility. Maybe they will even punish you more severely than necessary. So that others can see and be afraid,” one of the local doctors is sure.

Another explained that anyone could find themselves in this situation, and doctors cannot be blamed.

Could you have caught the virus before the camp?

The investigation into the case continues. Let us recall that a month and a half ago, the results of the examination became known, which showed that the cause of death of 9-year-old Vladislav Dudovsky was bocavirus. This is a common cold, which affects 5 to 15% of the population of Belarus every year.

“Recently, an investigator asked me to write a statement about who I would like to blame. I want all those responsible to be punished. We sent them to the camp healthy child, and a few days later he was gone,” the mother complains.

The investigator told her that the investigation is now trying to figure out where the child could have contracted the virus, which became fatal for him. One version is that the boy became infected before arriving at the camp. The mother is sure that this could have happened in the hospital.

“Almost before being sent to the camp, Vladik was in the infectious diseases department of the Berestovitsa hospital with bronchitis. But just at this time, all the children were suddenly transferred from the infectious diseases department to the regular one. Children could walk freely along the corridor and communicate with each other. The infectious disease then went on vacation,” the woman adds.

Let us remind you that 9-year-old Vladislav went to a children's health camp near Berestovitsa on a free voucher from the education department in early June. Two days after his arrival, he developed a fever heat, there was nausea. DOL employees shot her down on their own. The next day, the child was taken to a local hospital, where doctors tried to save the child.

In the evening, the child was sent to Grodno in serious condition. The next morning, June 11, the boy died. A criminal case was opened into his death.

As Sputnik learned, shortly after the death of Vladislav Dudovsky, a little girl died from the same virus in the Berestovitsa hospital.

He was transferred there from the district hospital; before that, he rested in the Berestovitsky children's health camp, where he allegedly stayed for only one day.

According to unofficial information, the boy complained of abdominal pain. It is not yet known at what point he fell ill.

As Sergei Tarantsey, chief physician of the Grodno Regional Children's Clinical Hospital, told reporters, doctors and forensic experts are not yet ready to put forward versions of the cause of the child's death.

“The child was brought to the hospital by our mobile resuscitation team on Saturday, June 10, at 18.15 from the hospital in Berestovitsa. The child was admitted in serious condition. He received all the necessary diagnostic and treatment measures. Despite this, the boy died on Sunday morning, BELTA quotes the doctor.

Before being admitted to doctors, the child was in the Berestovitsky children's camp. The boy was undergoing rehabilitation there; he himself was a student at a boarding school for children with visual impairments.

The sad side of the visa agreements between Minsk and Brussels is not even that they will not have time to come into force before the summer and Belarusians will still have to pay 80 euros for Schengen from February. The catch is that we are forced to rejoice at a completely passable document by the standards of our region as, without irony, the main and hardly repeatable achievement in Belarusian-European relations. We should have simplified the visa regime with the European Union a long time ago. For political reasons...
