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.

## Tragic Loss Raises Concerns About Maternal Healthcare
**Interviewer:** Tragic news out of Rhodes, where a 35-year-old pregnant woman, Irini Dimitraki-Aroni, has died just days after being discharged from a private hospital in Athens. Her family says she had a difficult pregnancy and chose to be monitored in Athens. While the hospital claims they discharged her after appropriate checks, they asked her to return frequently. The heartbreaking part is that her baby is now fighting for life in the ICU. We’re joined now by Dr. [Guest Name], a specialist in maternal health. Dr. [Guest Name], thank you for being here.
**Dr. [Guest Name]:** My pleasure. This is a truly heartbreaking story, and my thoughts are with the family and the little one fighting for life.
**Interviewer:** This devastating case comes against a backdrop of, while not particularly high, a stagnant maternal mortality rate in Greece over the last two decades, hovering around 8 per 100,000 live births according to the World Bank. [[1](https://genderdata.worldbank.org/en/economies/greece)]
Do you think this case highlights potential gaps in maternal healthcare in Greece?
**Dr. [Guest Name]: ** While Greece’s maternal mortality rate is relatively low compared to some other countries, even one preventable death is a tragedy. This case raises important questions. It’s crucial to understand the specific circumstances surrounding this woman’s discharge, the nature of her “difficult pregnancy,” and the monitoring she received both in the hospital and after discharge. Were there any warning signs missed? Were all necessary tests conducted? Could this tragedy have been prevented? A thorough investigation is absolutely essential.
**Interviewer:** What message would you give to women in Greece who are currently navigating pregnancy and childbirth?
**Dr. [Guest Name]:** I would urge women to be their own advocates. Speak up about your concerns, ask questions, and don’t hesitate to seek a second opinion if necessary. It’s also crucial to have a strong support network of family and friends.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for your insights, Dr. [Guest Name]. This is obviously a developing story, and we’ll continue to follow it closely.
