I-NHS ikhokhela ukwelashwa kokungabi nabantwana kwangasese ngemva kokwehla kwamazinga
Ibhodi yezempilo enkulu kunazo zonke eSCOTLAND ikhokelele iziguli ukuba zidlule ezingaphezu kuka-1000 emijikelezweni yokwelashwa kokungazali esibhedlela sangasese kusukela kube nokwehla kwamazinga empumelelo ngemva komsebenzi wokwakha eduze nesikhungo sayo.
OKUKHETHEKILE: Indlela esabika ngayo ngobunzima obesesibhedlela.
I-NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde yenqabile ukuveza ukuthi isichithe malini kusukela ngoNovemba 2012, ngesikhathi iThe Herald iveza ukuthi ibisithumela abesifazane esibhedlela iNuffield saseGlasgow ngemuva kokuba amazinga okukhulelwa ku-Assisted Conception Service yayo eGlasgow Royal Infirmary (GRI) ehle.
Okhulumela le nhlangano uthe ibikhokhele izinqubo ezingu-1079. Intengo iyahlukahluka kodwa umjikelezo we-IVF ungaba cishe u-£3000, okusho ukuthi izindleko ezingaba khona zingaphezu kuka-£3 million.
Ukwelashwa kwamiswa ngoNovemba 2012 ngesikhathi abesifazane abayishumi nanye behlupheka "ukuhluleka noma ukuncipha kokufukamelwa okungachazeki" emavikini ambalwa kusukela ekuqaleni kukaSepthemba 2012.
Amakhulu abantu sebedlule ekwelashweni eNuffield, kuhlanganise nabangu-42 abelashwa kusukela ngoSepthemba kuya kuNovemba ababanikezwa umjikelezo wokwelashwa wokubuyekeza (complimentary).
Uphenyo lweHuman Embryology and Fertility Authority (Hefa) lwaletha icala ekungcolisweni komoya okubangelwe imisebenzi yokulungisa esakhiweni se-GRI esiseceleni. Kodwa umbiko weHefa watusa abaphathi ukuthi "bacubungule kabusha ubufakazi obabaholela esiphethweni sokuthi imijikelezo yokwelashwa kusukela ngoSepthemba 2012 kuphela eyonakaliswe ngenxa yomsebenzi".
Amagrafu avela ku-Assisted Conception Service ye-GRI abonisa ukuthi ukukhulelwa okuvela ku-IVF kwehle ngaphansi "komkhawulo wesixwayiso" kuya ku-20% kabili ngo-2012 - ngoMeyi nangoJulayi - ngaphambi kokuba kwehle kube ngaphansi kuka-10% ngoSepthemba. Amazinga okukhulelwa nge-ICSI - lapho isidoda sifakwa ngqo eqandeni - ehla asondela ku-10% ngoMeyi.
IHefa yakhomba "ubufakazi bokushintshashintsha kwamazinga" kusukela ngoMeyi 2012. Abaphathi beyunithi bakubeka lokhu ekwehleni kwekhwalithi yomoya ehlobo ngenxa yokuhlanza nokugcinwa, ukwanda kweziguli ezinombono omubi (poor prognosis) kanye nokwethulwa komthetho wokudluliselwa kwe-embryo eyodwa kuphela ukuze kwehliswe izinga lesikhungo lokukhulelwa kwamawele, amathathu nabanye abakhulelwe ngobuningi, kuhambisane nezeluleko.
Kwathiwa "kungase kube bekunengqondo ukuthi isikhungo sikhombe ukushintshashintsha kwamazinga nekhwalithi yomoya phakathi kukaMeyi noJulayi 2012 ezintweni ebezibonakala zingamazinga aziwayo kodwa ... kufanele sicubungule kabusha ubufakazi".
Kodwa, ephendula iHefa, uDkt Helen Lyall, ohola i-Assisted Conception Unit, uthe ukubuyekezwa kokusebenza kwesikhungo kusukela ngo-2009 kuya ku-2012 kukhombise "izikhathi lapho izinga lokukhulelwa kweziguli (clinical pregnancy rate) lehla" okungahlobene nomsebenzi wokwakha, oqale ngomhlaka-6 kuJanuwari 2012. Lawa mashintshashintsha "ehlala eandulela futhi elandelwa amazinga aphakeme kakhulu", engeza kanjalo.
UDkt Lyall uthe: "Yize ubufakazi bokuxhumana obubangela phakathi kwesehlakalo ekupheleni kuka-2012 nomsebenzi wokwakha oseduze bungaqondile, kukhona izinto ezihambisanayo ezisekelayo. Umsebenzi wokwakha osondela elabhorethri, ukwehla kwekhwalithi yomoya, indlela ama-KPI ehle ngayo, kanye neq事实 lokuthi indawo esishintshile isinciphise inkinga.
"Ukuhlaziywa kwethu kuhlulekile ukuthola inhlanganisela efanayo yezinkomba ezihambisanayo kwezinye izikhathi zonyaka ukuchaza ukushintshashintsha kwamazinga okukhulelwa kwezokwelashwa (clinical pregnancy rates)."
Izakhiwo ezintsha ze-GRI zihlelelwe ukuvulwa ngoMashi, kodwa abaphathi kumele bafake isicelo futhi selayisensi ephelele ngaphambi kokuthi iqale kabusha uhlelo olujwayelekile.
IHefa inikeze iyunithi ilayisensi enezimo, eliyivimba ekwenzeni izinqubo ngaphandle kokugcina nokusatshalaliswa kwesidoda, amaqanda nama-embryo kuze kube yilapho umqaphi eseqinisekile ukuthi izakhiwo ziphephile.
Okhulumela ibhodi lezempilo uthe: "Uma umsebenzi wokulungisa usuqediwe iyunithi izobuyiselwa ku-NHS bese kulandelwa yisikhathi sokuhlolwa yiHefa. Lena yindlela ejwayelekile."
