Shocking is the news of the death of a 35-year-old pregnant woman from Rhodes, who died within 24 hours after the doctors of a private hospital in Athens discharged her and told her to wait before entering the hospital again. At the same time, her baby is fighting for his life in the ICU.
According to rodiaki.gr, the 35-year-old Irini – Despina Dimitraki – Aroni was 7 months pregnant. Her relatives report that she had a difficult pregnancy. That is why he decided to go to a private hospital in Athens, to be monitored by doctors.
The woman planned to have a religious wedding with Vassilis Aronis last September. But the wedding was postponed, because she herself should not suffer and be tired. The couple married on October 31 in a civil ceremony inside the hospital, while planning the religious wedding for after the birth of their child.
According to rodiaki.gr, the doctors of the hospital discharged the 35-year-old on November 6. However, they asked her to stay in Athens and go for a check-up in the morning and afternoon, which was done.
However, on Sunday night, while the whole family was in the house they had rented near the Hospital, the woman suffered a stroke, according to the first indications. An ambulance from EKAV and the private hospital in Athens was immediately called, and they arrived almost at the same time. Also, a doctor from the hospital that was very close by, went and proceeded with resuscitation procedures. Unfortunately it was too late.
Immediately the woman was taken to the hospital where her baby was taken away from her, who is being treated in the intensive care unit.
Her funeral will take place on Friday, November 15 in Rhodes.

## Interview: Tragedy in Greece
**News Anchor:** We’re deeply saddened to report the tragic death of a 35-year-old pregnant woman from Rhodes, Irini – Despina Dimitraki – Aroni. Joining us tonight is Dr. Maria Papadopoulos, a maternal health advocate, to discuss this heartbreaking case and the larger context of maternal health in Greece. Dr. Papadopoulos, thank you for being with us.
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Thank you for having me. This case is truly devastating.
**News Anchor:** Can you tell us more about what we know so far, based on reports?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** According to news outlet rodiaki.gr, Mrs. Dimitraki-Aroni was seven months pregnant and experiencing a difficult pregnancy. She sought care at a private hospital in Athens for monitoring. She was discharged on November 6th, but tragically passed away within 24 hours. Her baby is currently fighting for its life in the ICU.
**News Anchor:** This raises serious concerns about the circumstances surrounding her discharge.
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** Absolutely. This case highlights the importance of proper assessment and communication when discharging a patient with a high-risk pregnancy. It’s crucial to ensure patients understand their condition and have access to immediate care if needed.
**News Anchor:** This tragedy comes amidst a larger conversation about maternal mortality rates. What can you tell us about the current situation in Greece?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** While Greece has made strides in improving maternal health, there are still concerns. Unfortunately, we don’t have current specific data readily available [[1](https://data.unicef.org/country/GRC/)]. Organizations like UNICEF track these statistics, and it’s important for continued monitoring and efforts to address any disparities or systemic issues.
**News Anchor:** What needs to be done to prevent tragedies like this from happening again?
**Dr. Papadopoulos:** We need a multi-pronged approach. This includes rigorous medical protocols for managing high-risk pregnancies, ensuring clear communication between healthcare professionals and patients, and addressing any social or economic barriers that might prevent women from seeking timely care.
