Preface
This is outrageous! Recently, a parent in Baise, Guangxi Province was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, why? His child had an osteoma in his left knee, and he was originally full of hope to go to a tertiary hospital for treatment, but when the hospital did surgery, he made a big oolong - the doctor actually operated on the right knee!
Things reviewed
According to the child's mother's recollection, this happened at the end of March, and they took the child to the Baidong Campus of the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical College for Nationalities, with the number of the Department of Geriatric Orthopedics of Joint Surgery. Originally, everything went according to plan, but who would have thought that on March 27, halfway through the operation, the doctor suddenly ran out and told them that he had made a mistake and cut the right knee! As soon as the news came out, the hearts of the family members were like being smashed with a hammer, and they were painful and confused.
What is even more incomprehensible is that the medical record says in black and white that the preoperative examination and diagnosis are for the left knee, but the operation turns out that the lump in the right knee has been removed. This is so wrong!
Besides, the protrusion on the knee of the left foot is so obvious that it is bigger than an egg. At that time, there were at least several medical staff in the operating room, so why didn't anyone see them? That's too much, isn't it? Doesn't the doctor talk to the patient during the operation? Was it general anesthesia at the time? At the time of surgery, does the doctor not look at the information to confirm? Assistants and nurses also did not pay attention to the problem of "left and right"?
As for the hospital, there are also people in charge who have come forward to respond, admitting that this is a problem in the management of the hospital, and expressing their willingness to sit down with the family members to discuss compensation. The hospital also said that it will rectify and strengthen management in the future. For the wrong child's osteoma, we are willing to bear reasonable and legal compensation, and we can do the rest of the surgery on the other side of the child for free, etc., which should not have any sequelae and will not affect future training.
There are no sequelae that will not affect future training? According to the mother of the person concerned, the child is a sports student, and it is convenient to develop towards track and field, you say that there is no impact? On what basis? It seems that this is not just a technical error, but also a management loophole that needs to be filled. The point is how can the doctor be so confused and not confirm the location of the operation before the operation. If you are so sloppy before the operation, then I think there is a question mark whether you will be wholehearted during the operation.
The local health commission responded
Fortunately, the local health commission is not a vegetarian, and after receiving the complaint from the family, it immediately intervened in the investigation and handling. According to the local health commission, there are three ways to solve the problem. The first is to negotiate and settle the matter between the two parties, the second is that if the two parties cannot be coordinated, they can go to the medical commission for mediation, and the third is to take legal channels.
The mother of the person concerned spoke out
The mother of the person concerned spoke afterwards that the child is walking normally, but occasionally it hurts. A 17-year-old suffers the consequences of someone else's mistake and wants to give them a reasonable explanation. At the same time, it is also hoped that the society will pay attention to medical procedures and reduce the occurrence of medical accidents. Don't have a second case like this one.
Afterword
Here, I hope that this matter can be properly resolved as soon as possible, after all, for this family, the health of the child is the most important. When you go to the hospital in the future, the big guys may have to pay more attention, after all, this kind of "left and right" thing really can't afford to hurt!
