“We are all people and we can all make a mistake,” the health minister said
Battle for her life gives a 62 -year -old to Jan Hospital, after the mistake of making a nurse and transfused blood incompatible with her own.
The woman was introduced to Tzanio on Tuesday to undergo preoperative checks as she would have surgery the next day. At about 03.00 in the early morning of Wednesday, the shift nurse put the blood bag on the patient instead of administering another patient who was hospitalized in the same chamber.
The woman, shortly after transfusion, developed hemolysis due to the wrong blood group and her health deteriorated lightly. Was immediately intubated and transferred to the Intensive Care Unit, while also underwent surgery as he had hematomas in the brain.
According to Mega, Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis will find out the wrong transfusion to a patient at Tzanio Hospital.
“Don’t crucify the nurse, because he felt a little bit of crucifixion. We are all people and we can all make a mistake. The information I have from the hospital is that he is an extremely conscientious nurse in his work, extremely experienced and, in the opinion of his colleagues, was one of the best in the hospital.
The woman fights her battle. We will see what will happen if this medical process is completed. I still hope it goes better. If the family arrives in the courts, I will order the hospital not to oppose the court. I do not compete with the family, nor do I say it was not wrong. Obviously it was wrong, “the health minister said.
Mr. Georgiadis has apologized to the patient and her familywhile the 62 -year -old’s relatives have filed a lawsuit against the nurse.
