The Karnataka Health Department has launched Dr Puneeth Rajkumar Hrudaya Jyoti Yojana to treat people suffering from sudden heart attacks and cardiac issues.
Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao announced the scheme two days after the second death anniversary of popular Kannada actor Puneeth Rajkumar, who died at the age of 46 following a heart attack.
Notably, the scheme is also named after the late actor. The scheme seeks to install emergency devices in public places to cater to those suffering from heart attacks within the crucial response time.
The programme has been implemented in two ways. Hub and spoke model and installation of automated external defibrillator (AED) devices in public places.
Recently, it has been noticed that young people are suffering heart attacks. It is a worrying fact and according to a study, 35 percent of those who suffer heart attacks were in their 40s.
The government will also be deploying AI technology that can detect the severity of a patient's condition within four to five minutes, and those in critical heart health will be administered a free injection called Tenecteplase at the spoke centres, which helps in preventing a sudden cardiac arrest.
Private hospitals charge ₹30,000 to ₹45,000 for one Tenecteplase injection. However, we have decided to provide this injection free of charge in our government hospitals.
