    Lucy KILVERT · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    This summary was generated using AI from the published report. Please read the original report for the complete account.

    Report summary

    Lucy KILVERT was taken to hospital on 14 June 2013 after falling at home on 10 June and subsequently deteriorating; she had hit her head and was taking blood-thinning medication. The principal concern was that she did not initially receive a head CT scan, which was performed about eight hours after hospital presentation and revealed an intracranial bleed; the report also noted possible shortcomings in how the significance of blood-thinning medication was emphasised in the relevant guidelines.

    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Recipient name withheld; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    NICE Guidelines insufficiently emphasising blood-thinning medication in elderly people who have a fall when determining the need for a head CT

    Wider context from the report

    “namely that Mrs Kilvert was not initially at the hospital given a CT scan of the head. It was not performed until about 8 hours after presentation at hospital and revealed an intracranial bleed. The medical cause of death was :- 1a) Intracranial bleed, II Chronic Kidney Failure Hypertension Heart Valve Replacement. As it turned out neurological intervention would not have been appropriate even if a brain bleed had been discovered immediately. I was told by the consultant in emergency medicine who gave evidence, that although the NICE Guidelines were considered, the clinical judgment of the senior house officer who saw her initially was that there was no reason to suspect a bleed, although the consultant said that his judgment may have been different. The consultant felt that the Guidelines possibly insufficiently emphasised the significance of blood thinning medication in elderly people who had a fall when considering whether a CT scan of the head was necessary, albeit that eventually the matter was a question of clinical judgment. ”
