    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Unavailability of patients’ past medical and medication history to attending medical crews

    Wider context from the report

    “(3) The lack of information available to the attending medical crews on 7 December 2014 was also a concern of Mrs Paton’s family, which I share. I heard evidence from the attending Paramedic that there is rarely such information available but that it can be of vital importance when undertaking assessments. There was no evidence that, had information regarding Mrs Paton’s past medical and medication history been available, the outcome would have been different. However, I am concerned that such circumstances will exist and that the risk of non-availability of this information should be addressed. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to ensure requested blood tests are taken and reported back to GP practices

    Wider context from the report

    “(1) I am concerned that there is no system in place to ensure that requested blood tests are actually taken and reported back to the GP practice. Although there was no evidence that this issue caused or contributed to Mrs Paton’s death, I am concerned that there is a risk of deaths occurring in similar circumstances, unless this issue is appropriately addressed. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of a back-up process to ensure follow-up of medical appointments for patients lacking decision-making capacity

    Wider context from the report

    “(2) Mrs Paton’s family had concerns, which I share, that where a patient does not have capacity to make decisions about attending medical appointments they might be inadvertently missed when family members are not copied into correspondence. It was accepted that patient confidentiality would normally preclude such direct family involvement but that there may be circumstances when it is in a patient’s best interests to use this approach, to ensure that follow-up occurs. It was not clear from the evidence heard at the inquest what steps are taken when a patient is deemed not to have capacity to make this type of health decision. Concerns were raised that there is no ‘back-up’ process in place and that future deaths could occur as a consequence. ”
