Doc let's not call a spade a shovel,they were going in for a dignostic procedure not therapeutic,a uterine polyp would have been picked by a scan before instituting a therapeutic measure.

We are not getting the picture clear,so let's not argue over something we were given piecemeal info on

Thanks!

Going by the original story as recounted by the dad, I'm even of the opinion that a hysteroscopy was not needed at this stage.

If an abdominopevic scan was not elucidating enough after a negative pregnancy test, they had other options like a hormonal profile since it is amenorrhea we are dealing with and not a cryptomenorrhoea from imperforate hymen.

How they wound up with a hysteroscopy beats my imagination when it wasn't a case of abnormal PV bleeding.

However, like I said in one of my contributions, this history is patchy and may have been doctored to cover up something sinister.

Since I don't have all the facts of the case, I still give the team the benefit of the doubt to explain some grey areas causing confusion here.

Our argument actually spiralled beyond the case and went wild.

Thanks!

Thegamingorca:





First off, the "procedure" is not a surgery. Like an endoscopy, it is done to merely to have a look at the womb and vagina for a probable cause of a symptom a patient might be having. In this case, the doctors wanted to look out for the cause of her rather "acute" amenorrhea. Whether a hysteroscope is what you use to investigate the probable cause of delayed menstruation will be discussed later.


2) Unfortunately "the procedure itself" was abandoned and we might not know what would have been the outcome but let's assume you want to do the procedure in your clinic, is it a spinal anaesthetic you apply to do an endoscopy or hysteroscopy?


You seem to be trying to compare apples and oranges with your submission that death from an idiosyncratic reaction from being administered a benzodiazepine is somehow equal to the foul play that reeks in what was been done here where an invasive procedure that wasn't supposed to be done in the first place was prepped for by using a spinal anaesthetic when a local anaesthetic would have sufficed if needed


3) From your own explanation of what the process of hysteroscopy involves, it is clear you have your complications mixed up. The tubes you need to fill with fluid for better visualization do not harbour clots and as such a thrombus cannot just dislodge from within the womb and go and cause an embolism in her lungs. A thrombus can only form within a blood vessel.

Another key thing to note here which you missed and I reiterate previously is that The part where the procedure would have been done was not arrived at. Hence an embolus from her pelvis cannot be the cause of this as There was no op


Please read the story the op put there before making assumptions or deductions



From you opener, I kind of have the feeling that you don't fully grasp what an hysteroscopic procedure entails.

Hysteroscopy (transvaginal) can be DIAGNOSTIC or THERAPEUTIC or BOTH.

Like I enumerated earlier, a diagnostic hysteroscopy is just fact finding.

A suspicious growth can be taken (biopsy) during the process or a uterine polyp completely excised.

A myomectomy can be done using the same scope.

All these later procedures fall within the definition of a therapeutic hysteroscopy and much more.

You limit the procedure when you called it mere looking at the uterus.

As for the team using a spinal anaesthesia, I duly noted the error in their judgement but I left it to them to explain themselves.


However when conscious sedation is employed in this procedure by use diazepam and pentazocine, deaths have occurred from idiosyncratic reactions.

Oh yes hysteroscopy is minimal invasive surgery. If you don't know this, then I'm done.

Your other points are also noted but like your opener, they are all spurious assumptions.

Enjoy your weekend.

Thegamingorca:



A minor case like inserting a cannula or a catheter cannot spiral out of control and become fatal.

Someone that was scheduled for a hysteroscopy where a camera is used to view the vagina and womb is not what you expect to spiral out of control.

I hope I am addressing someone who has seen an endoscopy done first hand?

Fluid is also sent via the tubes to dilate the uterus for easy visualization. This process may dislodge a thrombus that may have been responsible for this fatality.


Though rare in the hands of an expert but a hysteroscopy may very well result in PV bleeding especially when biopsy was taken or an ablative procedure was done. Which was not the case in this situation.


I also marvel at your assertions. Have you heard of idiosyncratic reaction before.
A patient can develop a rare anaphylactic reaction to even common benzodiazepine and die before you even commence surgery.

Like I said earlier, there are no minor surgeries these days. Anything can happen intra- or post-op.

This is a tragic case indeed and I commiserate with the family on this heartfelt painful loss.

Before I open up my line of argument while not holding brief for the hospital, I want all of us to recollect that sometime in October 2005, we lost our first lady [on table] from complications of cosmetic surgery in far away Spain.

Also, Our popular actor RMD lost his first wife MEE [on table] from complications of myomectomy surgery in one of the best hospital in Lagos [1996].

Agreed that a vaginal hysteroscopy may not have required a spinal anaesthesia, we leave the team to explain why they chose to administer it.

The plausible explanation from the patchy one sided history given by the dad could be that the daughter suffered a pulmonary embolism which carries a near 100% fatality in our environment.

If the attending team did inform the patient on the procedure, reasons for the procedure, other available options and afterward extracted a signed informed consent for the surgery, they may go scott free if no negligence is established against them.


There are no minor or major surgeries these days as a minor case can quickly go awry.

Like I said earlier, I am equally traumatized reading this story but we can not crucify the medical team yet until after all processes are concluded.

RIP

Yes because there was no evidence he did insider trading. I don't like Pelosi, but no evidence, nothing

In this case the evidence was blatant

Plus there are many big american men who have gone to jail for the same crime.

Exactly what the whole argument raging on this topic is all about.

Nancy pelosi had privileged information.


The husband by some stroke of luck invested and sold stocks in some company.

Coincidentally, that company was the same one Nancy had privileged information on.

SEC and FBI couldn't by virtue of marriage or closeness implicate Nancy of divulging privileged secrets to the husband.


Back to our case, if the man has kept mum about where he sourced the info. For his deal, it was left for SEC or the FBI to do their investigation and prove her culpability.

You people talk without any sense sometimes..... The SEC and the FBI will find out because the fact is if institutional traders are not cashing in that efficiently.... Then it's most unlikely a single individual won't be able to..... If the matter had gone far, he will still be caught putting the wife directly in the line of fire.

Your opening sentence already gave you out as someone low on self esteem.

Can't you just quietly make your point without recourse to invectives.

Besides, you are coming late to the party. Other bright minds have already shared the stale information you are struggling to make with greater clarity my guy!

For your information, insider trading is a normal thing every where with people getting away with it.

Nancy pellosi had a case against her and her husband last year but it couldn't be proven.

Don't make SEC and the FBI look like one omniscience organization abeg!

The lacunae in this recent guidelines can be taken advantage of by the BDCs.

The CBN to my mind is still chasing shadows trying to stabilize the naira by clamping down heavily on the BDCs.

Diversify from a mono product economy, boost export by supporting MSMEs, criminalize the possession above 1000 dollars in cash for no valid reasons, and prosecute hotels and schools which charge for services in dollars.

De-dollarizing our economy may just be the panacea to stabilizing the naira and reducing the rush to adopt the dollar as a store of monetary value.
