R. I. P to the deceased and I pray comfort attends to the family and loved ones..

Going through the timelines, I wonder about the possibility of a severe blood transfusion reaction - which is a silent killer due to poor lab practices - given the jaundice, which only made the evolving acute DIC fatal. The other thing to consider may be the generous vasopressor use intra-operatively given the low BP. This might contribute to the AKI alongside anaesthetic gases impact on her liver.

Myomectomies are generally very bloody operations - not unusual to have a blood loss of 1-3litres depending on number and position of fibroids - so having a possible bleeding disorder such as vWF - currently underdiagnosed as not checked in routine blood tests- complicates the picture, and raises the likelihood of developing DIC.

DIC can be quite difficult to treat once the boat has left the shores.. Given the lack of FFP/ factor 7 or Cryo in Naija.


Overall, if the above were to be present, a return to theatre may not have helped.. It might only have sped up her demise - - something the surgeons might have been thinking - hence their reluctance, despite contrary overseas opinion.

#JusticeForPeju: Family Accuses Hospital Of Negligence In Death Of Lagos Chef



https://twitter.com/therealdaddymo1/status/1391042286704791553?s=19

SOURCE

Gross negligence is in the culture of the blacks - after their negligence, they blame it all on Mr President....

Hmm...
No wonder the country is in shambles
See a human interest thread like this struggling to reach four pages, whereas the thread "Etinosa Idemudia’s Second Marriage Crashes Less Than A Year " is already on page 5 and counting.

Our values are seriously wack. Nigerians only complain when they are the victims. Until we all start to call out each other irrespective of our affiliations with them and also unite in doing so, we will all have to continue to manage the country we have.

For those constantly thinking the answer is in relocating abroad, remember Black lives matter

May God save us from négligent doctors. With the huge amount of money the husband paid, they still could not do their job well. RIP. So sad

dont you know the culture in Nigeria is to collect money and jappa... negotiate the highest pay, dont do your job and blame leaders inc President....

Sometimes, being stubborn is really helpful... Barely two months ago, my sister was rushed to the hospital from her place of work and the condition was so critical that required an operation, while in the theatre battling for her precious life, I was praying and sweating profusely that she would come back....

While this was going on, I moved to the female ward of the hospital to get her mantle which she kept on her bag and I saw one of the female patient who's having difficulty to speak and breathe well trying to get the attention of a nurse putting on a white earphone blasting to music from her mobile device.

The female patient was pointing to the pulse clip which the nurse mistakenly removed while arranging her oxygen cylinder.

I had to forcefully remove the useless earphone from her ears and shouted at her to concentrate.... She wanted to misbehave by trying to shout back at me, I had to show her that there are levels to madness by destroying the earphone. I did wrong there, but I hate negligence.... She reported me to the naval personnel there and after everything, they ask me to take it easy and be calm.

What brighten my mood that day was that my sister came out of that health challenge and the doctors gave her full attention anytime she complained.

I don't tolerate negligence at work place.

but its the culture in nigeria; to that nurse "the hospital is not my fathers business so why should i care"; and why should i care about a dying woman "na my sister"?

How can the negligent culture in Nigerian workplaces be changed?

SapphirePRINCEX:
A problem shared can be half solved, you can still talk about it, who knows u will get help. I have a doctor too who might be of help

Thanks sis and God bless u too.

I have issues with my kidneys and postrate and I also have chronic ulcer.

It is not as if they do not do their job very well
The issues is that they don’t know their job

Why didnt they investigate the 2nd opinion of the UK doctor?

Why?

N

May her soul rest in peace ,she died out of the hospital negligence and unprofessionalism.

Well said doc.

But why didn't the hospital and the attending physicians carry the family along?
Respect!!!...until we start to respect each other's feeling.
"Do unto others as you want them to do unto you" ...
Clean, neat principle. Age long too!

Foolish idiotic thinking. Oyinbo land is tired of immigrants and are putting up barriers to stop you. The best bet is to develop our minds and improve our country! Life is not meant for ‘show off or I big pass you’ it is meant for cooperation and building together.

Don't mind some Nigerians! They want to live at the mercy of whites yet they'll cry when the whites want to impose their values like homosexuality on them.

The solution is to fight and get the government do the right thing by fixing our healthcare sector!
Healthcare is very important because only a healthy person can work and earn a living.

Sad This is where we are. This is what we suffer. My sympathy

Many Nigerian doctors and nurses exhibit bad attitude. But I'm surprised when they port abroad they automatically imbibe good attitude. Why is that so?

Regulatory and monitory policy in Nigeria is dead and the cause of many problems in Nigeria.

Madness for madness. Sane persons cannot survive this country.

IYANGBALI:
She is in a better place. Let go and let God

This is the problem, the hospital was negligent.. what has God got to do with it? Every crime commited in Nigeria rather than hodling the culprits responsible all i hear is leave it for God. Someone is supposed to be held responsible! Why did God not save her? If really God exists.

ecomalchemist:
This is exactly how they almost killed my mum in 2016. Such a commercial enterprise with no care for human lives. They and Paelon are only mindful of money, money, money. Recent experience with Evercare shows they are different, more empathetic and willing to do extra without putting money first. What really has become of our people? No care even in the so called highbrow hospitals. They will be negligent yet asking for more money. The chicken has come home to roost. This can’t go on much longer.

Evercare is foreign hospital and being managed by foreigners.

Angelfrost:


Not just doctors please... It is a systemic thing, rotten at the very core! This transcends to Engineering, Law enforcement, Politics, Religion, just name it!

The nation is in DARKNESS!

RIP to the dead, so much of failed system..

On top this FG is thinking removing Horsemanship salary, like a hungry, parent dependent doctor will now be the one handling life?? Nigeria eh.. Let me not say what's in my mind sha..

All Nigerian doctors are quack. You bribe the people in charge they issue you with as many certificate,degree or qualifications as a doctor. If you kill a patience you bribe police, judge and court and they will set you free.

The poor families of the patience says leave it for God to judge. Total rubbish!


Anyone who goes to a Nigerian hospital and makes it out alive should thank goodness.

Same way one quack doctor murdered my nephew in the name of ceacserian section. They cut the poor girl open and left her there without proper attention and she died. The quack doctor still collected money. I told her my step sister to sue the hospital she says leave it for God, God know the best. Total bulshit! God is not going to do a damm thing!

God doesn't even exist.

HMO limits care hospitals can provide unless you are on premium plan. They don't want to pay hospitals.

Not all the citizen behaves in abroad but then that does give the doctors right to misbehave over there.

Most citizens behave because system is tight. In Nigeria, system is chaotic and most citizens misbehave. Doctors are not immune to bad system . You cannot get something out of nothing.

Stella obj died after surgery in Italy.
USA
A recent Johns Hopkins study claims more than 250,000 people in the U.S. die every year from medical errors. Other reports claim the numbers to be as high as 440,000.
Medical errors are the third-leading cause of death after heart disease and cancer.

Every sector in Nigeria is like that. The problem will be lack of government regulation and consequences for wrong doing.
