Hospital Regional de Telêmaco Borba records first birth of triplets
The triplets were born this week and are being attended to in the Neonatal ICU.

The Regional Hospital of Telêmaco Borba – Dr. Victor de Almeida Barbosa (HRTB), belonging to the State Government, experienced a special moment on Tuesday (10) with the first birth of triplets. Joaquim, Heloisa and Helena, sons of the couple Andresa Procópio and Jeferson Nunes dos Santos, were born, respectively, at 09:13 weighing 1,215 g, at 09:14 weighing 1,005 g, and at 09:15 weighing 900g. The family is of Telêmaco Borba itself.
Given the complexity of this care, a prior organization of the entire maternal-child ward of the hospital unit was made, with the mobilization of professionals and a structuring of the care, ensuring that each stage of birth occurred with the appropriate support.
As they were premature babies, the three newborns were referred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (Neonatal ICU), where they receive specialized care and the necessary 24-hour follow-up, according to their clinical needs.
The HRTB is administered by the Secretariat of Health (Sesa), through the State Health Care Foundation of Paraná (Funeas). The unit serves residents of Telêmaco Borba and the other six municipalities of the 21st Regional Health: Curiúva, Imbaú, Ortigueira, Reserva, Tibagi and Ventania, as well as patients from other regions referred by the Central of State Regulation, according to the assistance flows.
“This moment represents the commitment and dedication of the professionals of the Regional Hospital of Telêmaco Borba, highlighting the safety, the quality of care, the integration and the humanized care of all the team that mobilized to offer the best to the mother and the triplet babies,” said the state secretary of Health, César Neves. "We recently announced the start of care for high-risk pregnant women in the hospital, and we quickly saw the fruits of this specialized service in the Central region of the state," he said.

The obstetric care offered was provided by a team specially organized for this moment, explains the interim director general and administrative director of the Regional Hospital of Telêmaco Borba, Cleverson Damião Ribeiro. “The team responsible for childbirth was composed of two obstetricians, an anesthesiologist, three pediatricians, three nurses, nursing technicians and support team, demonstrating the importance of joint and coordinated work between the different professionals.”
“After this planning and organization that ensured safety, with everything running within the intended flow of care, our hospital consolidates the Maternal-Child Line, offering a structure prepared, for 24 hours, to attend to cases like this that require specialized care.”
The Regional Hospital of Telêmaco Borba has had neonatal ICUs since 2023 and started care for high-risk pregnant women in early November, expanding its scope of care and complexity with maternal and child care offered by the Unified Health System (SUS) in Campos Gerais. The measure strengthens the care network in the region, integrates the seven municipalities of the 21st Regional Health and brings the specialized health services closer to the population.
