erico2k2:

why should there be a blame, the quicker you get that bit out of your head the better, there is no blame here cos it was not proven there was a bridge in practice or procedure.From the post, the Doctor is not in Nigeria, probably UK or US,you think they employ quacks there?.
Docots have Duty phones and pager for a reason.

I believe he's a doctor and experienced.

Those supporting the quack doctors incompetence must be his fellow doctors.

It's normal for professionals to got each others back when fuckups arises.


Music apart, I'm a professional but I won't disclose my field here and yeah, we got each others when we got any fuckups but blame secretly.

I believe you. She must have been lost and disoriented. Wondering if there's something you could still do. May God grant her good passage o. Whew! So terrible!

I was once chased by a ghost too. I was way younger and she came from a naija movie I watched same day I saw her. She was so real...I still have leg injuries to show for it. It is well...may God keep us safe.

Look,now this is funny,you mean a ghost from nollywood chased you? lmao

I think your mind is playing trick on you. it's your state of mind that's making see things. go see psychologist

From what I read here, he's not even a qualified doctor yet they allowed him to treat on a patient in critical condition.

Where were the senior doctors at that he had to call them on phone to seek for guardance..


Or are they short staffed?

Did you read paragraph 2, line 5 where the OP stated that he is a medical doctor. He is probably a junior doctor or doing housemanship but he has passed from the Medical college!

Guess u missed the several parts in reasonable peoples' posts where they pointed out his flaw in the management where he administered the antipyretic.....sorry, paracetamol, rather late.
The supposed colleagues having his back didn't hide that part away. So what are you really upto bro Mr. Airforce1?

Doc. U did ur job. But I'd like for U to know this.
The judgement there referred to, in the scripture U quoted, is not the judgement of that great day of the LORD. whether or not the "dead" is a good person, born again, in the case of christians, his/her place of eternity; Heaven/Hell, is concluded soon as death occurs/happens.
The moment a man (human) dies, he/she does not go immediately. He/she stays around a while before leaving; personal experience with my late dads ghost. It used to be heresay but its real becos I have experienced it.

In as much as the doctor did the best he could. Isn't fluid therapy and vasopressor administration part of the management protocol for sepsis. Maybe it wasn't stated but the woman obviously started acting strange due to decreased cerebral blood flow.
If she had endotoxins in the blood, antibiotics will not have killed the microorganisms and antipyretic just brings down the temperature without tackling the decreased perfusion to vital organs.

Please I'm just asking cos maybe it wasn't stated

Kathmandu:
That one died after his first single

Epic!!!

Beremx:
If only ghosts of the dead people carelessly killed by wicked doctors haunt the doctors, the health care system of our hospitals would be better.

Absolutely!

I still think the doctor fell short of something

where were the nurses?

This is what do piss me off about some people who don't believe in some realities.

He knows what he's saying.
Don't argue that.
That doctor might get haunted if something is not done about it on time.
I know what I'm saying.

pls b4 we criticise to the death, its important we read BTW the lines and put ourselves in same shoes. The doctor tried his best and he is competent from his actions I can tell even though I am not in the medical line. he understood he was dealing with a critical situation and human life that's why he consulted his Senior colleagues to be double sure. some other doctors may out of pride and i-too-know handle such situation alone and make a big mess of it. in multitude of counsellors there is safety. seeking advice from senior colleagues with more experience and expertise is a sign of strength and not incompetence.
Moreover the doctor wrote this article so he could get a better explanation of what happened. so I think we should do just that.

Go and write UTME again,try out college of medicine then you will have the answer to your question.

Oh no He was busy doing all by himself . No wonder she died faster than she wouldve.

Bro pls share the xperience with us now pls

ZKOSOSO:
My take on this event is that the Doctor had enough skills on the Job to save her but somehow could not use all the powers in him to save her from death.
Remember she could only blame him after her elevation or transition to higher plain of knowledge and existence. At her dead state, she knows a million things on a single thing in this life. Experience taught me this.

She was right. The Doctor should do more to save others in similar circumstances in future.

Makapounse:
ok, but if a Junior Doctor handle a critical patient and the patient die , no one to blame than such doctor because of being Junior handled senior Doctor's job, lack of enough knowledge/experience will make the work faulty which will result in loosen the life of such patient

If he is found wanting, ie gave an overdose or wrong medication, or did something un ethical, there are clear guidelines in the medical practice to waht could amount to disciplinary and probably criminal actions.
Even if a Doctor does something wrong and causes death in as much as they could prove beyond reasonable doubt that they where doing the right thing they are not to blame.

Guy, doctors do consult each other and share ideas. If you had read the book' the gifted hands' by Dr Ben Carson, one of the foremost neurosurgeon in the world, you would have read that he consulted with other specialists and sought their opinion. No man is an island

Airforce1:

Calm down bro. I can feel you.
But the issue is, if this happens to be his first alone, if he keep listening to the woman's cries and all, if he happens to be an emotional type of a human, he can lose focus even if he is very much a qualified doctor. That's why some patients are better sedated if necessary.

You would notice that's why some doctors are not allowed to carry out surgery on close relatives.

I'm not into medicine or surgery so I can't say much on this case.
I just wish the woman had made it.
This case is very touching.
May GOD continue to protect us.

And she's lavin

Exactly.
He's just human afterall, he doesn't have the key to life.

She was a Yoruba Christian. She was praying, holding my hands, saying that I should not let her die, that she still has little children at home. She then started behaving abnormally, talking irrationally and screaming, also convulsing intermittently.
At this point, I called a senior who came in, assessed her and told me privately that she won't make it. He told me to continue masterly activity which I did.

Hello Bro, from my point of view.. Though she was praying but her faith could no longer sustained her at the point of death,she needs a super faith so she held your hand. She recognized you as a Doctor but most importantly as a spiritual authority she can join her faith with( If two shall agree...)Next time , strengthen their faith(At the point of death human spirit is more sensitive to hear, see things both physically & spiritually, she saw in you a spiritual giant you are not even aware of)
You did your best as a professional & I do commend you. When she started behaving abnormally, it was your turn to take the spiritual authority & office to calm the storm(may be you even did)
When you called your senior, he did assessed her and told you privately that she won't make it. That's owk professionally but in your spiritual office that was evil seed sowed in your heart to believe she won't make it. He told you to continue masterly activity which you did. Like I stated, human spirit is more sensitive to hear, see things both physically & spiritually, she might have heard your discussion with your senior in her spirit & later saw all your masterly activity. It got her more in doubt why you are not exercising your spiritual authority despite she saw you as a royal priest hood & yet still acting like you care with the evil seed that she can't live anymore.
She came back to ask you why did you allow her to die..? But you did your best...that means there is something you would have done to save her...what's is that..?
Professionally you did all but in your Spiritual office you need to b awake. May be you have faith and healing ministry you need to step into along side been a clinician.
Also note that God strategically put you on a call duty that day because you will be the best man for the job(Spiritual office)...
I will advice you to visit her children at will, tell her family that's her concerned at the point of death..check them sometimes & give them your support.
Stay blessed @ duketunde

Brother, it has been said here time and again, yet you insist on becoming obstinate. They all went easy on you hence your growing audacity on this thread.
Sadly i'm not half as nice and don't mince my words.
You my friend are a mor0n, a riff raff who can't string a few words together to make music yet you come here to push stuff with intellectuals. Take a seat broh, if you feel pained about her death, sue the 'incompetent' doctor and let's see how that goes for your battered ego.
With all my years in medical practise, I still call my superiors to get their input on some dicey cases, not because I don't know what to do, but because for legal sake I have to document that I have spoken to my superior on the case. Take a seat broh, you should be hoping from one street show to another seeking relevance, not arguing with those whose IQ double yours.

U did your best. if God wants, he would have let her live. if she comes again, tell her to table her case before God, that u did your best. it might even be a demon in disguise and not d actual ghost. free your mind and maybe spend days with a family member or close friend. ndo, jisike.
