Tragedy of mum who suffered 'massive' fatal bleed that killed her and her unborn baby girl
'Shortcomings' in the hospital care of a heavily-pregnant woman who suffered a 'massive' fatal bleed did not 'make more than a minimal contribution to her death', a coroner has concluded.
Both found 'shortcomings' in Sabine's treatment. "I think no one knew what was going on," Dr Bhattacharya told the hearing. "There was no obvious bleeding from the vagina, so there was no obvious cause of the bleeding from the uterus. Sabine's bleed, it later transpired, originated from the splenic artery. Dr Bhattacharya said treatment is difficult as the artery is deep.
"The vascular surgeon could not find the bleeding and he asked for a CT scan, but Sabine was too unstable and we could not do it," Dr Bhattacharya said. "If [the CT scan] was performed and demonstrated the source of the bleeding, Sabine would have a slightly better chance of survival, but given this was an out-of-hospital aneurysm, her chances were poor to start with."
"I do not believe not doing a CT scan was a negligent move. At the time, we had to take the best course of action for Sabine. By the time she decided to go for the scan, she was not stable enough." "While there were shortcomings accepted by the trust there's not any evidence, where I can find, such shortcomings make more than a minimal contribution to her death."
