After its inspection of hand-foot-mouth disease prevention in Sao Khue Kindergarten in Quarter 3 in Trang Dai ward and in Trang Dai Kindergarten and Residential Area in Quarter 4 in Trang Dai ward, the delegation had a working session concerning how to receive and treat patients with hand-foot-mouth diseases in Dong Nai Children's Hospital.

The inspection showed that majority of kindergartens and residential areas in Trang Dai ward have effectively carried out anti-hand-foot-mouth disease propaganda programs. They implemented disinfection program with Cloramin B effectively.

Particularly, receiving and treating hand-foot-mouth patients in Dong Nai Children's Hospital is faced up with a lot of difficulties due to overcrowding at the hospital.

Doctor and Director of Dong Nai Children’s Hospital Nguyen Le Da Ha said since early this year the hospital has had 12,499 lots of hand-foot-mouth patients examined including nearly 4,800 in-patients.

15 patients died of this disease at the hospital. In addition, the hospital transferred 20 serious patients to higher-level hospitals.

The rate of hospital bed use, especially in infection ward, is always higher than reality.

In terms of hand-foot-mouth disease patients’ treatment, the hospital is also faced up with many difficulties due to lack of equipment, medication and money.
