As expected, another worker among the five who suffered burns in the accident at the cement factory in Cienfuegos last week was discharged from the hospital on Friday.
Carlos Aguilar Sabina, 33 years old and reported as less serious, had 12% burns. Since entering the Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía Lima Provincial Hospital, he showed favorable progress, and the doctors anticipated that as a young patient he should not encounter difficulties. On Friday, after performing a dressing change, it was decided to discharge him and follow up through outpatient consultations.
Of the other two injured individuals who are reported to be in serious and very serious condition, Dr. Soraya Izaguirre Hernández, head of the burn unit of the institution, told the telecentre Perlavisión that they remain hemodynamically stable and that their injuries are being monitored.
"They were cured today, so far they have not had any kind of complication," he specified.
Finally, the specialist referred to the clinical condition of Dionel Figueroa Calunga, 52 years old, who has 70% burns and had previously experienced hemodynamic instability and problems with the heart and lungs.
"It has some stability, although it continues to be reported as in extreme critical condition with all the repercussions of those serious injuries on its organism and awaiting its evolution," said the doctor without providing details.
On Wednesday, August 28, the fifth injured person in the accident was discharged. His name is Alexei Aguilar Valdes, 53 years old, who had burns on 5% of his body and was able to return home after receiving treatment.
The day before, an explosion occurred at the Carlos Marx Cement Factory in Cienfuegos, resulting in one worker dead, five injured, and three others trapped, allegedly because the explosion caused a hopper to fall, which kept them trapped until firefighters rescued them.
The deceased was identified as Raymundo Narciso Sarría, 61 years old, who worked as a Cuban electrician for the Engineering Construction Company No. 6 (Ecoing-6).
