    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to consider medication details and the significance of diclofenac

    Wider context from the report

    “3. It also emerged during the inquest that details of her medication including the significance of the drug, Diclofenac was not considered. One of the contra-indications of this drug for long term users is gastric ulcers. Many people take NSAIDs without having any side effects, but there's always a risk the medication could cause problems, such as stomach ulcers, particularly if taken for a long time or at high doses. ”

    Failure to forward and make available GP medical notes for clinical examination

    Wider context from the report

    “2. During the inquest it emerged there was evidence of systemic failings in recording of and transmission of information. The Junior Doctor failed to record the name of the Specialist Paediatric Registrar giving advice. More worryingly the Paediatric Registrar at inquest could not recollect giving any advice in relation to the patient. It also emerged during the inquest that medical notes provided by the GP were given to reception staff by the parents on admission. Unfortunately these documents were not forwarded or seen by the Junior Doctor on examination of the patient. ”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to investigate abnormal ECG findings and tachycardia through further testing and observation

    Wider context from the report

    “1. Evidence emerged during the inquest that the abnormal ECG trace and tachycardia needed further investigation and she should have been subject to further tests and admitted for further observation to establish the cause of the tachycardia. This was effectively a missed opportunity to render basic medical care. On the balance of probability it is more likely than not, she may have survived or life may have been extended if tests had been done to confirm the diagnosis of peritonitis and appropriate treatment commenced. ”
