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, which 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.
The woman was immediately taken to the hospital where her baby was taken from her, who is being treated in the intensive care unit.
Her funeral will take place on Friday, November 15 in Rhodes.

What are some potential systemic factors contributing to maternal mortality in Greece, as highlighted by Dr. Lambros?
## Tragedy Strikes: Pregnant Woman Dies After Hospital Discharge
**Host:** Welcome back to the show. Today, we are discussing the heartbreaking story of a 35-year-old pregnant woman from Rhodes, Greece, who tragically passed away just 24 hours after being discharged from a private hospital in Athens. Joining me to discuss this case and the larger context of maternal mortality is Dr. Sophia Lambros, a renowned obstetrician and gynecologist. Dr. Lambros, thank you for being here.
**Dr. Lambros:** It’s a pleasure to be here. This is a truly devastating story, and my heart goes out to the family.
**Host:** Can you tell us a little bit more about what we know so far?
**Dr. Lambros:** Reports indicate that Irini – Despina 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 on Sunday night. Her baby is currently fighting for their life in the ICU.
**Host:** This is unimaginable for any family. Do you think there are any systemic issues that might be contributing to tragedies like this?
**Dr. Lambros:** While we don’t have all the details of this particular case, it’s important to look at the bigger picture. According to UNICEF data [ [1](https://data.unicef.org/wp-content/uploads/country_profiles/Greece/Maternal_GRC.pdf) ], Greece has made progress in reducing maternal mortality, but challenges remain. Access to quality prenatal care, especially in rural areas, can be an issue. Additionally, communication breakdowns between healthcare providers and patients can sometimes lead to tragic outcomes.
**Host:** What advice would you give to pregnant women, especially those experiencing difficult pregnancies, on advocating for themselves and getting the care they need?
**Dr. Lambros:** It’s crucial for expectant mothers to feel empowered to ask questions, voice concerns, and seek second opinions if they feel unsure about their care. Having a strong support system of family and friends is also incredibly important. They can offer emotional support and help advocate for the mother’s needs.
**Host:** Dr. Lambros, thank you so much for shedding light on this important issue. Our thoughts are with the family of Irini – Despina Dimitraki – Aroni during this incredibly difficult time.
