Chapter 737: Serious Accident

Just when Duan Zetao flew all over the country to supervise the quality supervision of RU products, a very serious medical accident occurred in the People's Hospital of Western Guangdong, 11 patients had kidney failure and other toxic reactions after injecting an injection called leucacin, nine patients died one after another, and the remaining two patients were dying.

Nine people died, two were dying, this is a very serious medical accident, even the central leadership was alarmed, the central head made instructions, we must properly deal with the aftermath, to find out the real cause of the accident, strict investigation and punishment!

Major medical accidents are under the control of the Ministry of Health, and it is said that it is not Duan Zetao's business, but the Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital proposed that the eleven patients were injected with leuconin injection, and there must be a problem with the drug, and reported this information to the Guangdong West Provincial Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center, which is about Duan Zetao's business, and he quickly put down the work at hand and flew to Yuezhou City non-stop.

Sitting on the plane, Duan Zetao frowned, he has been focusing on food safety issues since he took office, which does not mean that he does not pay attention to drug safety issues, in fact, he has always believed that drug safety issues are more serious than food safety issues, because drugs either do not have problems, and when they do occur, they are often a big problem of human life.

It's just that because of the strong professionalism of drug safety issues, he is a complete layman in this regard, and there is no way to catch it, and the main counterpart management department of drug problems is the health department, and it is inconvenient for the Food and Drug Administration to interfere too much.

But now Duan Zetao can no longer avoid this problem that is a headache for him, human life is at stake! Since this is an area that I am not familiar with, I must try to familiarize myself with it, instead of choosing to avoid it, otherwise I will be sorry for the duty and mission entrusted to me by the country and the people!

Thinking of this, Duan Zetao clenched his fists hard, and at this time, Ma Nanshan beside him pushed him, "Duan Ju, it's here, let's get off the plane!" Duan Zetao found out that the plane had landed at Yuezhou Airport.

At this time, it was already late at night, and it was still drizzling outside, just like Duan Zetao's mood at this time, full of haze, as soon as he left the airport, Zhang Yangfan, director of the Western Guangdong Provincial Food and Drug Administration, who had been waiting at the airport entrance for a long time to pick up the airport, hurriedly greeted him, "Duan Bureau, hard work!" ”。

Duan Zetao nodded at Zhang Yangfan with a serious face, and went straight to the Buick business car that came to pick him up, Zhang Yangfan was a little worried, he had heard that the new director of the General Administration was not good to greet, and as soon as he took office, he attacked with an iron fist, and cracked several big cases in a row, and now there was such a big accident in his own land, I hoped that it would be good not to be hit by the board, so I had to get into the car hard.

"Duan Ju, it's so late now, you've been on the plane for so long, and it's hard work, do you want to go to the hotel to rest first, and then go to the hospital early tomorrow morning ......", Zhang Yangfan said cautiously.

"Go straight to the hospital!" , Duan Zetao undoubtedly waved his hand vigorously.

Zhang Yangfan's fart slapped the horse's leg, and he became more and more nervous, he froze there and didn't dare to speak again, the atmosphere in the car was a little dignified, Duan Zetao also realized that his attitude was too blunt, the more he had to calm down at this time, and he couldn't let his emotions affect his subordinates, which would only make them more nervous, so he slowed down his tone and said: "Comrade Yangfan, you can introduce the situation first......."

Zhang Yangfan calmed down and began to introduce what happened, "About five days ago, the doctors of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the People's Hospital of Western Guangdong Province found that some patients with liver disease had abnormal reactions during their ward rounds, only four cases at the beginning, and the number increased to 11 cases the next day. ……”。

"The People's Hospital of Western Guangdong Province immediately reported to the Provincial Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center, and the monitoring center fed back the situation to us, and we immediately controlled the drugs involved, sealed all the remaining drugs, and conducted sampling and sent them to the drug testing institute for testing ......."

"After overnight inspection by the drug testing institute, it was found that in the prescription ratio provided by the manufacturer, there were two excipients with the largest amount, one was propylene glycol, and the other was polyethylene glycol 400. Propylene glycol is a commonly used excipient in injections, and polyethylene glycol 400 is used relatively rarely, so the toxicity of polyethylene glycol 400 is concentrated, but after five days and five nights of investigation, no evidence of the toxicity of polyethylene glycol 400 has been found, so it is not yet completely concluded that the problem must be in the injection ......".

"However, we have taken control of the drug distributor who provided the drug to the hospital, and have ordered the manufacturer to immediately send a representative to Guangdong to deal with ......the matter."

Duan Zetao nodded, Zhang Yangfan's report just now was clearly organized, and his handling of this incident was also very decisive and capable, indicating that he, the director of the Food and Drug Administration of Western Guangdong Province, was still very competent, his face eased a little, and he continued to ask: "Comrade Yangfan, you have done a good job, the drug inspection institute must continue to follow up, and we must find out the real cause of the accident as soon as possible!" By the way, which manufacturer produced this leucin injection?! ……”。

"It's a product ...... produced by Dongfang Pharmaceutical Group", the corners of Zhang Yangfan's mouth twitched, and he stopped talking a little, as if there was something to say, this small action was noticed by the careful Duan Zetao, so he asked: "Comrade Yangfan, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't have any worries......."

Zhang Yangfan gritted his teeth and said stubbornly: "The Ministry of Health has also sent a vice minister to deal with this matter, and my opinion is to immediately notify the major hospitals across the country to stop using the leubacterin injection produced by the Oriental Pharmaceutical Group and seal it on the spot, and control the relevant responsible persons, but the vice minister of the Ministry of Health Wang disagreed, saying that the Oriental Pharmaceutical Group is a key enterprise directly managed by the Ministry of Health, and it is not yet possible to completely conclude that the problem must be the injection, and the immediate suspension and sealing of the drug will cause social panic. It is also not good for the development of Oriental Pharmaceutical Group! ……”。

"Bastard! Can this kind of thing be left to chance?! This is a matter of human life! As long as there is the slightest possibility that there is a problem with the drug, the drug should be stopped and sealed immediately, is there any need to say such a simple reason? ! Duan Zetao slapped the back of the car seat hard and said angrily.

Zhang Yangfan is not easy to speak, which is also the reason why he wanted to speak just now, in fact, because of this kind of problem, it is not the first time that the Food and Drug Administration and the health department have argued, but this time the other party is the deputy minister, Duan Zetao can lose his temper, but he can't afford to offend.
