Angelo Pichierri Review of I.R.C.C.S. Policlinico San Don...
I can say that I have known doctors to be defined ...
I can say that I have known doctors to be defined as cardiac surgery luminaries, as well as doctors who can be defined as very poor in professionalism and medical ethics.
My three-month-old daughter is operated on to the heart for an inter-ventricular defect with the success of the surgery.
After several hours, despite leaving the operating room with excellent hemodynamics, in post-operative intensive care he reported serious brain problems due to hypoxia due to a low prolonged cardiac output.
I was informed by chance by a relative of a patient who was in that ward, of the complications of my little girl.
As if that were not enough, I was not given the necessary information in the immediate on the health status of my daughter, or during the post-operative course.
The instrumental tests were not immediately carried out even if repeatedly requested by the undersigned, (electroencephalogram and RSM), with the ultimate aim of making risky hypotheses that my daughter had already arrived in that hospital with brain problems.
It must be said that similar statements in defiance of the medical code of ethics were made after commenting on the disastrous results of magnetic resonance imaging and in the presence of a strong emotional apprehension of myself and my wife.
In order not to go too far I would like someone to explain to me how it is possible that all this takes place in a department that serves precisely to prevent similar complications from occurring.
To always talk about the same management of post-operative intensive care, is it possible that access is provided to several people at the same time in the same environment wearing only the shoe cover?
The life of my daughter and that of my family is certainly not the same;
who had to pay more attention and timely intervention, to avoid the damage caused?
