Strengthening of rural health infrastructure is as important as strengthening of a hospital in the urban area said Dr D K Manyal former health minister and general secretary Bharatiya Janata party Jammu Kashmir. Speaking on the occasion of donating Automatic Analyser for different types of blood tests which are done for the patients undergoing COVID-19 treatment in the hospital.
Dr Manyal said that Samba district hospital has been designated as a dedicated Covid hospital with the installation of the oxygen plant, at present there are 50+ patients undergoing treatment in the Covid hospital SAMBA .
For the better management and treatment of the Covid patient the patient has to undergo various blood tests, among those the D dimer test and C reactive protein (CRP) tests are the mandatory and vital tests for the treatment and monitoring of the treatment of the patient.
In District Hospital samba these two test were not available and the patient had to get these test done from the private laboratories , the d-dimer test indicates regarding the formation of blood clots in the body of the patient and with the early detection of formation of blood clot the patients precious life can be saved at the appropriate time , and the C reactive protein test indicates the infection in the body , with CRP the doctor can monitor whether the infection is mild moderate or severe and accordingly the patient undergoes the treatment these two tests are highly expensive in the private laboratories and the poor patients cannot afford these type of tests from the private laboratories
Dr Manyal informed that the equipment known as analyser coats around Rs.1,00,000 , he said that they have managed donations from the friends and the workers and today donated this equipment to the hospital for the welfare of the patients . He said that with the installation of this analyser the treatment of the Covid patient will be absolutely free of cost for any patient of the area.
Dr Manyal interacted with the doctors those who have been posted at Covid hospital Samba and requested the doctors especially the physician , Anaesthetist, And the pathologist to make full use of this analyser so that the patient undergoing treatment and even after discharging from the hospital may not suffer from any infection or blood clotting in the body. He said that if anything else is required in the hospital for the better management and treatment of the patients and they may contact him any time and whatever possible the team BJP samba will provide to the hospital at the earliest.

Dr manyal said that this is my humble request to the LG administration that all the rural hospitals District hospitals , subdistrict hospitals , primary health centres , health and wellness centres and health sub-centres must be strengthened so that the people of the rural areas may not suffer because of lack of facilities in the rural areas . He said that The investigations are the vital components of treatment of a patient and the doctors can a treat and monitor the condition of the patient if the investigations which are required for this are available in the hospital he said that also it may not cost much to the Govt.
