Knife injuries, mainly from fights between teenagers, are considered among the most complex and difficult traumas for doctors.
These cases are treated by the Trauma hospital and the management of the knife-injured patient is a challenge for the medical staff, as the cutting tool can damage several organs at once.
The head of the vascular surgery service, Arben Zenelaj, tells A2 that quite a few cases that lead to trauma end in death.
Damage to blood vessels from knife cuts cause hemorrhage, causing the patient to die on the street or in the hospital. Surgeon Zenelaj, who during his work at the Trauma hospital is constantly confronted with teenagers injured by knives, calls on them to distance themselves from these attacks that take your life.
While it appeals to parents, state institutions, including doctors, to increase control and care for teenagers. A month ago, the 14-year-old student Martin Cani died in a knife fight near the "Fan Noli" school in Tirana, who was killed by his peer from the parallel class.
While a week ago, a 17-year-old man was shot with a knife in the courtyard of the "Mustafa Hoxha" school in Cakran, Fier, who fortunately escaped death.
Shocked by the events, parents have risen to protests to demand security for the lives of their children in schools.
While the Ministry of Education and the Prime Minister continue the hearings with the parents' boards, where today the decision was made to close Tik Tok, one of the platforms that is considered to encourage violence and aggressiveness among teenagers. (A2 Televizion)
