This is gross negligence of the highest order, oh man if this was a civilized country, this patient will be happy right now and thinking of retirement after suing the life out of the doctors and hospital. On the bright side though, maybe this was the intervention of a higher supreme being, as the patient is said to be recovering and wouldn't need surgery after all.

Why is Kenya always in the news for wrong and bad reasons.

sHOTdownHawk:


First Nairaland is not news. Its Gossip and nigerians Love gossipping.
Well its not only kenya, but also zimbabwe, SA, Ghana and basically any african country thats abit better than Nigeria. Anyting to make us nigeria forget about our leaders.
Funny thing i read an artical in vanguard.ng claiming Nigeria has the highest peadophile cases in the world. Makes Sense wit all those uneducated muslims. N Boko haram stealin girls and raping them. But such an artical wont come up in here.

They need to review their management. Identification of patients is very important before any intervention. Patient’s name, date of birth and address are established to make sure the right patient is being treated.Even in trauma situations or when the patient is unable to confirm their identity, there should be a tag with vital and identification details to differentiate patients who might have similar names.

The Kenyan doctors goofed big time on this. How do you open up someone’s cranium without being guided by fluoroscopy? They should’ve reviewed the imaging done on the patient or done a new one. They can’t possibly open up someone’s skull expecting to see thrombosis...incompetent phools.

they had same last name, the mistake here is that the name tags of the patient were put on the wrong patient,so the doctor came picked up a chart read the diagnosis, saw the scans and that had already been taken then went to surgery.... Only later to discover he had read the wrong patients chart/scans.. the surgeon is not at fault here, intact he was competent enough to discover that there was no clot in the brain of the patient like it had showed in the MRI scans, the one at fault is the nurse who put the wrong chart at the wrong patient

gbosaa:


That was a dangerous and unsafe way of treating such a patient. There was no need to open the skull. Intervention should’ve been through the femoral artery guided by fluoroscopy. He shouldn’t have relied on pre scan alone.
