Family says surgery delay left elderly patient unable to move her legs
A 74-year-old woman had spinal surgery on Oct. 2 at a São Paulo state hospital after her family says it was twice delayed over equipment sterilization problems. She still could not move her legs when discharged.
Reason for the delay
The daughter says the operation was postponed because necessary equipment was not sterilized and an essential device was in use.
Iamspe said the surgical schedule follows the severity of patients received in the emergency department; it did not answer questions about the deadline cited by the family or sterilization problems.
Urgency and outcome
The daughter says a doctor told the family surgery was needed within 72 hours to prevent mobility damage, and relatives fear the delay affected the patient’s movement.
Iamspe said the operation was performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord after the patient was found to have stable, non-progressive tetraparesis; it did not say whether the delay affected her outcome.
