I am really surprised to see the latest of the event in parassala kerala. The doctor declared negligent for extorting and referring patient who developed the amniotic fluid leak and sudden breathlessness, shifted to nearby medical college, couldn't revive the baby who had bradycardia. Then patient went to DIC, hysterectomy done, the postoperatively patient died. We as humans address the bad fate of the family.
But how the gynecologist can be declared negligent for an unexpected rare event? Or are we supposed to forecast all bad outcomes of a pregnancy on a statistical basis and uniform display across all delivery rooms of hospitals? Kindly opine.
