    David SCOTT · 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

    David Scott attended hospital with a non-healing knee wound and was later diagnosed with peripheral vascular disease and chronic limb-threatening ischaemia. His condition deteriorated, requiring an above-knee amputation and other surgery, and he later developed infected ulcers and osteomyelitis before receiving palliative care and dying on 7 October 2023. The principal concern was that vascular calcification visible on an x-ray was not recorded, potentially delaying investigation and treatment of peripheral vascular disease; concerns were also raised about the failure to refer him to tissue viability nursing during wound deterioration.

    Source evidence

    How this individual concern was interpreted

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

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to report potentially clinically significant vascular calcification in x-ray reports

    Wider context from the report

    “Having considered the second edition of the Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Imaging Investigations produced by the Royal College of Radiologists and having heard oral evidence from a Consultant Vascular Surgeon that a non-healing wound in addition to vascular calcification evident on x-ray can be a clinical indicator for Peripheral Vascular Disease which would then trigger a further process of investigation, I am concerned that a finding that 'could be normal' and so conversely 'could be abnormal' was not recorded. I am further concerned and that something of this nature, would not be expected to be noted in the x-ray report, it appearing to be considered standard practice for it not to be reported by both a Consultant in Emergency Medicine and Consultant Radiologist within Warrington Hospital. This does not appear to be consistent with expected standards and poses a risk that future deaths may occur. ”
