In my 12 years of practice, I have never used or seen cotton wool being used in the operation theater except for intravenous canulation at the reception. Sterile gauze is the commonly item. However, due to the current economic situation in the country, the hospital may have improvised.
That being said, the attending perioperative nurse was supposed to have counted the gauze before the final wound closure. Anyway, the whole team should face disciplinary panel for serve as deterrent to others.
May her soul rest in Peace.

These are few of the idiots who went through private universities. They never study neither they wish to become medics but parents force them into it.
Private Universities in Nigeria train better professionals than public Universities that spends 10 months at home and 2 months in school due to ASUU strikes and cultisim.

Will you close your mouth. Do you think it's everything you read online that's the truth? I have never heard that a cotton wool forgotten in an abdomen can kill.

There is more to this story.

Na so one doctor prescribed a drug and asked me to take three times the dosage. It was the pharmacist at the pharmacy that I went to buy the drug that saved me.

The woman shouted: is your situation so bad? That she takes the same drug but a third of the dosage. I quickly googled and discovered that it was true.

When I got to the hospital the following day and challenged him he said ehm ehm... you can take the remaining after some time.
We see cases like yours on daily basis in the government hospital where I currently work. As Pharmacists, we simply make the corrections and save the patient thereby covering up the physicians from possibly getting into troubles due to such negligence.

Yet, these same doctors will not be grateful for all Pharmacists do to save them and the patients! Instead, they'll be fighting every moves by goverment to improve Pharmacy practice and remunerate Pharmacists appropriately! They'll be claiming authority in a field they possess only superficial knowledge of.

At post, the Delta state government must not let this case be swept under the carpet. The doctors involved must be punished for medical negligence while the diseased's family should be adequately compensated.

RIP to the dead.

Go and have them insert a full lump of cotton into your abdomen and block your GIT with it, let's see if you'll survive it after days of such blockage.

Someone trying to solve problems of about 100 people a day would always make some errors, have you personally tried it before? We are all human beings. The blame should go to the govt for not providing enough healthcare workers for the population.

Not true. UI medicine is 133rd best in the world. There is no private university in Naija on the list.

The other time I read of a doctor that forgot there surgical scissors in a patient body. The reopen the patient again after he complained of pain.
E be say some doctors sef don dey smoke Colorado 😂
Actually, there’s a surgical technician who accompanies the doctors to the theatre. Their job is to count the number of instruments going into the operating room & again count after surgery to confirm that all instruments that went in, are accounted for while going out. They also hand the surgical instruments to the doctors during surgery. These are the people responsible, because some surgeries can take hours and the doctors are exhausted. That’s not to mean that the doctors should be negligent. It’s just that justice is hard to get in Africa if you don’t have a lot of money.

These doctors should be shown as example for others to get sense.

That's why I am afraid of going to hospital. Some of these doctors I don't know what they smoke to behave like this.

Don't allow them to give you intravenous injection. They are quacks. Your hand will swell up.

Seriously, Catholic hospitals should check their staff. Someone I know had same issues of improper injection. It could have been fatal.
