Two Mothers Die Within a Day at Jodhpur's Government Hospitals as Questions Mount Over Their Care

Two women died within 24 hours at Jodhpur's Mathuradas Mathur and Mahatma Gandhi hospitals, sparking anger among their families and prompting the health department to review medical records in both cases.

Two women died within a single day at two different government hospitals in Jodhpur, putting the city's healthcare system under scrutiny. One woman died at Mathuradas Mathur Hospital, while the other passed away during treatment at Mahatma Gandhi Hospital. Doctors in both cases cited excessive bleeding and a critical health condition, while the families of the deceased are alleging negligence in treatment and demanding a full investigation.

Discharged as Improved, Then Died in the Trauma Ward Two Days Later
The most recent and widely discussed case is from Mathuradas Mathur Hospital, known as MDM Hospital. A woman had been admitted there for around 20 days and was undergoing continuous treatment. On July 17, doctors noted an improvement in her condition and discharged her from the hospital. According to her family, everything seemed fine after she returned home, but just two days later, on July 19, her health suddenly took a turn for the worse. As her condition deteriorated further, her family rushed her back to MDM Hospital, where she was admitted to the trauma ward. She died during treatment there. The fact that she died within two days of being discharged, despite having spent twenty days in the hospital, has left her family deeply angry, and they are demanding an impartial investigation into her entire course of treatment.

On Ventilator Support for 25 Days, Lost to Post-Delivery Bleeding
A day earlier, on Sunday, another woman died at Mahatma Gandhi Hospital. According to the hospital management, she had been on ventilator support for the previous 25 days. She suffered excessive bleeding after delivery, which kept her condition critically unstable throughout. Doctors continued treating her without a break through those 25 days in an effort to save her life, but they were ultimately unable to do so. Following this death as well, her family did not stay silent and raised questions with the hospital management about the entire treatment process. They say that despite such prolonged treatment, they deserve answers on why she could not be saved.

Medical Records Under Review, Focus on Whether Protocols Were Followed
Following the deaths of both women, the health department has swung into action and is gathering full details of both cases. Hospital management says the medical records in both cases are being closely examined to determine whether the prescribed medical protocols were followed at every stage of treatment. If negligence is found at any level, action will be taken against those responsible as per rules. For now, both cases await a final report from the health department, after which it should become clear exactly where the treatment fell short.

What this means for you
• Across India: Cases like this push families to ask more questions about post-delivery monitoring and pre-discharge checks at government hospitals.
• In Jodhpur: Families with patients at Mathuradas Mathur or Mahatma Gandhi Hospital will need to keep a close watch on health even after discharge, while the outcome of the health department's review could determine accountability at both hospitals.
