Tragic death at Colombo National Hospital: Hospital’s accountability in question?

Date:

Colombo (LNW): A sudden and unfortunate incident occurred involving the unexpected death of a patient at the Colombo National Hospital. The incident was linked to the inadvertent ingestion of carbon dioxide during the post-surgical recovery care provided.

Following a thorough post-mortem examination, the cause of death was determined to be respiratory hypoxia. However, there was no explicit mention in the report of any unexpected or unusual events at the hospital contributing to the case.

The deceased was identified as a 61-year-old unmarried woman from Nugegoda, who had undergone breast surgery. Notably, she held the position of an executive director at Verité Research.

The mortal remains of the deceased have been respectfully placed at the Borella Remand Flower Hall, with the final rites scheduled for today, the 31st.
