The coroner’s concerns
– (1) That hospital reviews into unusual cardiac deaths such as this one are not more widely shared with other clinicians involved with a patient’s care, and other disciplines, such as, in this case, rheumatology specialists. This means that the full clinical picture of how a patient died may not be sufficiently widely understood. (2) patients with cardiac problems known to be HLA B27 positive or otherwise known to present rheumatological conditions being 1 adequately assessed for the risks which those rheumatological problems might present, include vasculitis. .
