Urgent investigation for the causes of death of 43 years oldwho died in a chair in the emergency room of the “Papanikolaou” hospital in Thessaloniki after being discharged by the doctors, the Minister of Health ordered, Thanos Plevris.
The case is expected to shed light on histopathological examinationsas the forensic medical technical advisor of the family mentioned on SKAI and the show “Simera”, Dimitris Galenteris.
«There is a picture of what we will look for in the workshops. THE venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism is one of these causes that is being investigated and is the most likely. Nevertheless, we are waiting for the verification from the histopathological laboratory to be sure“, He stated characteristically.
What made a special impression on the medical examiner, the technical advisor of the unfortunate man’s family, is the fact that while it is reported that no Covid test was performed while he was alive, they did it after he ended up. “Once they found out he was dead they did a Covid test and I want to understand what was the motive for doing a dead coronavirus test,” he said.
He explained that the victim arrived on the night of April 1 at the hospital emergency room, where he reported pain in one leg he underwent a treatment on his lower extremities because he had extensive ulcers, some skin wounds and he was allowed to return home undiagnosed.
Asked if any examinations were performed on the 43-year-old, Mr. Galenteris pointed out that “I do not have any signs from the autopsy that indicate that a test was performed, even a blood draw. We will also see what emerges from the emergency papers».
He stressed that if he had been examined, pulmonary embolism could be identified and treated. «The hospital is obliged to do something to diagnose and treat its patient whether he is going to leave or not. If treatment were started, the chances of her leaving would be reduced to a minimum. If pulmonary embolism is fatal at 40% without treatment, with treatment this rate drops to 5% -7%“, write down.
He added that if they even measured his oxygen, they would find reduced satiety and see some heart rhythm disturbance. «This patient had an underlying acute condition to cause death within the last few hours. Therefore if the test had been done, it would have been recognized by the doctors“, He stressed.
Finally, what particularly impressed the medical examiner was the fact that while it was reported that no Covid test was performed while he was alive, they did the test after it ended. «After they found out he was dead they did a Covid test and I want to understand what was the motivation to do a dead coronavirus test“, He stressed.
