These are the victims of the fatal accident that occurred along Ibadan-Lagos expressway recently. I was just informed by a friend that they gave up the ghost atthe hospital. These guys might have survived if they were promptly attended to, by our emergency response team. May their souls rest in peace Amen.

Lord have mercy on Nigeria

EVILFOREST:

OP, please try and get enlightened.
BURNS cases are very classical.
Some patients even make phone calls.
Some even smile with their families.
But what u must know is that when the entire SKIN is almost involved, that patient will almost always die except in the DEVELOPED world where SKIN can be harvested as fast as possible to cover up these patients.

Please be informed.

Enemkingsley:

It's usually not painful....first degree burns are not.

OrangeDream:
What is happening this year na?? Why all dis? Na so so bad news since d year started.. God have mercy on us

overboard:

The chances of them them dying from this percentage of burns is over 90% anywhere in the world. Quote me. Their lungs and kidneys wouldn't survive the damage, infections will overwhelm the system. Potassium released from damaged cells will shut the kidney down in days. Our bodies are not designed to withstand this..
Most burns victim will look stable, first 24hrs but the complications set in much later and it becomes a battle.
The chances of survival is less than 5%





I'm no medical doctor but I was like "ah, these ones don survive na", so imagine my pain to learn that they both died! We need to do something about our health system.

Where were they taken to, what was the treatment given to them? It is pertinent that we know.

Any one with insight and info please educate us.

Toksytoks:
Most people here don't understand the physiology of burns. It is easy to stand from afar and manage burns. Those guys suffered over 95% burns, partial thickNess burns, the mortality rate is over 90% even in developed countries. The complications of burns starts after 48hrs progressing rapidly till day 7 . Pain is the list of their problems, the nerve endings are damaged so they will probably not feel the instant pain.
The major issues are fluid loss, oedema, laryngeal oedema for inhalational injury, electrolyte imbalance, kidney failure, infection/sepsis.
It was a bad case.

Dr Toks will you marry me?

Dollyak:
Road accident together with Fulani herdsmen constitutes one of the major causes of death in Nigeria. This should be the main priority of the Governors smh.

My advice to Nigerian drivers is to maintain three second rule so as to ensure a safe distance at any speed.

mixratio:
pls e
Explain the 3 seconds rulue

ojtopsy:

In highway engineering, perception-reaction time is 3secs for an average driver. If you study science at all, the equation of motion is now applied to calculate the minimum stopping distance which is dependent on your speed.
Summary is if you cannot stop a car or reach an obstacle within 3 secs. You are going to hit that vehicle or obstacle if you don't leave enough space BTW u and other vehicles in case of emergency.

allycat:
The chances of survival anywhere in the world were thin. Those were over 90%surface burns.
