The treatment of Manisa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ferdi Zeyrek continues at Manisa Celal Bayar University Hafsa Sultan Hospital. The hospital's chief physician, Prof. Dr. İsmet Topçu, provided information about Zeyrek's current condition.
Highlights from Topçu's statements;
"We have entered approximately the 36th hour since the incident of our President Ferdi Özbey, which involved an electric shock. As of this hour, we are at about the 34th hour of his intensive care admission. As we know, there was an initial intervention after Mr. Ferdi's electric shock, which was the first intervention at the scene by 112, lasting about 20 minutes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Subsequently, he was brought to the emergency room, and after about 50 minutes of ongoing CPR in the emergency room, we admitted our patient to intensive care upon receiving a response. As of this hour, we have completed the 34th hour in intensive care. During this time, we had also informed yesterday that treatment support continues to provide oxygenation to the heart, lungs, and body externally, to be able to revive him.
"A VERY DYNAMIC PROCESS: IT CAN CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT"
Similarly, support for the kidneys was also ongoing. As of now, of course, this process, as I mentioned yesterday, is a very dynamic process. It can change at any moment. It may not be very accurate to say something good or bad from here. We are doing our utmost at this moment. Of course, this is not a process that can be continued by a single person alone. All physicians, including cardiovascular surgery, cardiology, neurology, anesthesia, and intensive care, are continuously working around the clock with our faculty members at the patient's side.
"THE MOST ACCURATE TREATMENT CONTINUES"
In addition, with the support of the ministry, valuable scientists in our country on these issues have been reached. A group was formed with them to consult on the effectiveness of the treatments being carried out or the direction and continuation of the treatment, and the most accurate treatment method for President Ferdi has been determined, and the current treatment continues.
"THE DAMAGE IS GREAT: THERE IS SERIOUS ORGAN DAMAGE"
Of course, this process is a challenging one, and the damage is significant. The fact that he has been hypoxic for a long time has led to serious organ damage and a serious electrical burn, presenting itself as an electrical accident. However, the public can be reassured about this matter. Our entire team is currently working continuously 24 hours a day for this patient, and we are in consultation with experts from all over Turkey. We are also receiving guidance from scientists, intensive care specialists, or cardiovascular surgery specialists who have reached out to us. We are trying to take the most accurate steps for his treatment.
"SAME AS YESTERDAY: BUT IT CAN CHANGE MOMENT TO MOMENT"
It would not be correct for me to say something definitive. That would be wrong. I would misinform you. As of now, it is the same as yesterday. Let's say it is stable, more precisely. But as I said, I am mentioning this so that no different meanings arise from here. Because it can change. It can change moment to moment.
"TRULY A VERY DIFFICULT PATIENT"
For us, he is truly a difficult patient. He is a very valuable person, but also a very challenging patient. This treatment process is being handled with great care, and the team has been continuously at his side 24 hours a day. They are still at his side. The team continues for his treatment."
PRESIDENT OF THE CHAMBER OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS: RUST OBSERVED IN THE INSTALLATION
The Manisa Chief Public Prosecutor's Office has launched an investigation into the incident. An expert committee has been appointed within the scope of the investigation. The committee visited Zeyrek's home last night to conduct an examination. The incident is also being monitored by the Chamber of Electrical Engineers.
President of the Chamber of Electrical Engineers, Mahir Ulutaş, stated that rust was observed in the electrical installation and protective elements according to initial findings. Ulutaş also said, "Serious problems unsuitable for wet areas have been observed in the design of the electrical room."
Ulutaş pointed out that there was a leak in the motor due to high humidity and that the protective equipment was not functioning properly.
