But why should a student doctor operate unassisted.

doctokwus:

Painful,but I have my own queries about the man's narration of events.
First,maybe he meant resident in O&G,so a trainee obstetrician.
Secondly,unless you are a senior resident,no training specialist hospital would allow a junior resident carry out any surgery without supervision.
Thirdly,I really doubt the narration of the meeting he had with the CMD.Did the CMD say those words about a "student doctor" and reimbursement if he hadn't paid?
He also mentioned 22 pints of blood being requested,that is about 11 litres when the human body has about 5-6litres of blood in total!
Lastly,assuming it was a resident that performed the initial surgery,the subsequent management after the complication would not only have been reviewed and overseen by a consultant O& G specialist but by internal medicine and other surgical consultants since the kidney was affected and dialysis had to be done.
It's painful news and now that he has gone to the social media,the hospital will hopefully come out with their own version of events and at least let the man and public get accountability and to also restore faith in the Hospital because if it happened the way he said,a lot of questions will be begging for answers.

Mummyimbecile:
Does a student doctor even have the right to operate, person wey be apprentice....wey still dey learn work.

That's the job of surgeons. A student doctor can be in the theatre just to assist.

But in the zoo hospital, anything goes!


RIP to the dead, and may God give those she left behind the fortitude to bear the loss.

I always advise people to go to Federal Medical centers or State University teaching hospitals, and leave all these private quack hospitals that has only one fake doctor that claims to know all.

I usually don't like to comment on threads like this because the Nigerian public hates doctors and their minds are already made up irrespective of any explanation you may give.
However, that wasn't a medical student. The doctor is likely a resident in training, but definitely not a student.
2) Hysterectomy (removal of the womb) can be done as a last resort to save the patient's life when all efforts to stop the bleeding has failed.
3) The bleeding caused reduced blood supply to her kidneys, making them shut down, leading to kidney failure and subsequent dialysis.
It's a very sad story and unfortunate outcome.

Hotwest:
I can feel how this man love and miss his wife

billyG:
How can a womb be removed to stop bleeding?is their no antibleeding injection,how comes a medical student can't identify a kidney that is situated at d back of d abdominal cavity.
This doctor is a really butcher.this is pure murder!
My wife told me something about child birth that made me agreed to put a stopped to further child bearing.
Most hospitals are only interested in the money you spent not service delivery.

I was nearly killed by a nurse last week, I was given an injection which I never needed and when I complained of the heart attack with a severe breathing issues, they never bothered, they administered the same injections the following day, watching me gasping for air.

I was rushed to another hospital and admitted for 5 days. I'm currently battling heart issues caused by a nurse. May God help us.

Na just Ulcer and Malaria I was treating o.

dominique:


A lot of factors can lead to post partum hemorrhage not just uterine rupture. Removal of the uterus has to be the last resort iafter everything else has been done to curtail the bleeding. How did the student doctor come up with the diagnosis that the uterus has been ruptured and has to be removed? Which treatment did they administer to stop the bleeding before deciding to remove the uterus? Was the operation supervised buya specialist? The hospital has a lot of explaining to do

crackhouse:
Who said the Nigerian doctors are the best again? If I hear am again from anybody mouth eh.
Nigerian doctors are the worst in the world. But come to think of it, what is it that will make them the best? Is the school they attended that doesn't meet up to standard or the environment where they study that's not even enabling?

obrian888:
Why will a student Doctor be allowed to undertake a delivery process when some of them cannot prescribe drug for malaria what a normal regular nurse will do, now the woman is dead what can they do to payback the husband and family NOTHING, even they sue the entire Nigeria medical council. what should be done now to make sound a note of warning to the NMA that hence forth let no student doctor go near any patient that needs to be operated upon, if you do, it will cause you your license, however the student Doctor involved in this case should face the music for murder.

CarGuideNG:


Hysterectomies have been a recognised management protocol for post partum haemorrhage for close to half a century. Matter of fact, in category 1, 2 and 3 Caesarean Sections in most centres, pregnant women are required to provide consent for hysterectomies, prior to C/S surgery.

Merely a response to your post. Nothing to do with the accused in this thread.

olasaad:
With all this money, you should have registered her at a private hospital. But how can someone labour from Monday to Wednesday without any alternative means only in Nigeria RIP to the woman.

UyaiIncomparabl:
This is another cogent reason why I won't have my kids in this country.

Drey1:


Exactly, labour should not exceed 24 hours after inducement. The baby must either come out itself or through operation after 24hrs of inducement. I think the delay omin labour caused the bleeding which resulted in the quack doctor decision to remove womb. Imagine say bleeding dey, and doctor dey tell u say only solution is to remove womb. Lol. Wetin musa no go see for gate.
