DUNN, Valerie Dorothy
|
Mrs Valerie DUNN died on the 9th August 2024 in Preston Hospital when she suffered an out of hospital cardiac arrest caused by a pulmonary embolism as a result of a deep vein thrombosis. Mrs DUNN underwent total right hip replacement surgery in June 2024 and attended the Urgent Care Centre on the 3rd August 2024 where she was prescribed apixaban and a CT Pulmonary Angiogram was ordered to confirm or exclude a pulmonary embolism. On attendance at the appointment to undergo the CT Pulmonary Angiogram on the 5th August 2024, there was a failure to note her raised troponin level, resulting in her being incorrectly advised to stop her anticoagulation treatment and the CTPA was not completed. Following discharge she collapsed on the 9th August 2024 and was taken to hospital and despite efforts she was unable to be resuscitated. Had the CT Pulmonary Angiogram been carried out as planned, it would likely have resulted in the diagnosis of a pulmonary embolism and the continuation of anticoagulation and Mrs DUNN would not have died when she did.

CRITCHLEY, Ian Andrew
|
Ian CRITCHLEY died on the 9th November 2023 in Chorley Hospital, as a result of fatal hypoglycaemia. Mr CRITCHLEY, who had type 2 diabetes mellitus, was admitted to hospital with sepsis on the 31 October 2023 which was treated however he was then suffering with hyperglycaemia and hyperkalaemia and commenced on a variable rate insulin infusion on the 8th November 2023 to correct this. His blood sugars should have been monitored hourly in line with policy but no blood sugar checks were completed and the infusion remained running without any adjustments being made to the treatment. Mr CRITCHLEY was found unresponsive and in cardiac arrest the following morning and could not be resuscitated. The failure to monitor his blood sugar levels for a period of 6 hours contributed to his death. His death was contributed to by neglect.
