The coroner’s concerns

This report was published as a scan, so its text was read automatically. Check the wording against the original before you quote it.

— 1. There was no discussion/explanation yprovided to Allison before she underwent planned major thoracic surgery on the 5" March 2018, the explanation given was immediately before she was asked to provide her written consent in the theatre area minutes before surgery commenced, a situation which if repeated causes me concern for a patient being able to appropriately consider the risks associated with proposed surgery and determine if they are willing to consent. 2. There did not appear to be an escalation of monitoring of Allison's vital signs by nursing staff in the 24 hour period commencing at 11.00am on 12" March 2018. 3. Nursing staff did not appear to be consistently seeking clinical review following non reassuring vital signs results actually taken in the same 24 hour period referred to in 2 above.
