Surgeons ‘Leave Things Inside The Patient’ 4000 a Year

I have seen surgeons administering Anesthesia when the patient suffered a Lung related disease and could not stand a particular anesthetic for they never referred the History of the patient.

There are cases where a wrong part is operated upon..

The instance quoted in the article is peanuts for us in India.

.Patients in India or their relieves need to be more vigilant in Hospitals and should demand to know the Surgical Procedure, Anesthesia to be used, and check for any abnormality after the surgical procedure and react immediately without standing on form of Behavior or fear of reprimand by the Hospital or the doctor.

Anesthesia Overdose Boy’s Death Blame The Doctor?

To the best of my knowledge anesthetists and Surgeons take adequate care in administering these drugs.

But the reaction of the individual at a given time is not in their hands.

Come to think of it, any recovery from sedation or Anesthesia is not in anybody's hands just as the heart starting to beat after re-connection from the Heart Lung machine.

Doctors do their bit, recovery i not in their hands, that's the nature of Medicine.

There is no point in blaming the Doctor for these issues,unless one can prove it is negligence in treating by way of not reading the History of the patient or neglect of established procedures.

Continue like blaming Doctors for every thing, you will have doctors shying away from taking decisions .
