    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to refer patients to Cardiology following relevant clinical findings or correspondence

    Wider context from the report

    “The letter from ████████, which was received by the GP surgery on the 7th August 2017, referred to an echocardiogram on the 16th May 2017 which confirmed severe aortic stenosis. It asked the GP surgery to arrange for Mr Longley for a specialist cardiology opinion and for him to be reassessed by the GP regarding any further syncopal episodes. The concern is that no action was taken by any GP at the practice to either refer Mr Longley to Cardiology in light of Dr Chambers’ letter or in light of the reported echocardiogram results. Further, no action was taken by any GP to review Mr Longley as requested. The concern is that there is a risk of future deaths if similar lack of action occurs in the future. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Delays in sending specialist clinical letters

    Wider context from the report

    “The letter from Doctor████████to Mr Longley’s GP was sent out on the 7th August 2017, nearly 3 months following the echocardiogram on the 16th May 2017. This appears to be a significant delay████████explained in evidence that there had been a delay in obtaining the medical records needed for████████to write the report to the GP but the cause of that delay was not known. It was not clear why the letter was only written on the 29th July 2017 and then not sent out until the 7th August 2017. Mr Longley had severe aortic stenosis. The evidence suggested that cardiac surgery would have been offered to Mr Longley and would have taken place within 3-6 months. In this case, it was not possible to determine whether the outcome would have been different for Mr Longley had the letter been sent out in a timely fashion. The concern is that there is a risk of future death if there is a delay in sending out similar letters in the future. ”
