The patient was later readmitted having suffered a heart attack and died
HEALTH chiefs have apologised to the family of a patient who died from a heart attack shortly after a change in medication. Medics at an undisclosed Lanarkshire hospital failed to record who had made the decision to take the individual, known only as A, off Furosemide and Ramipril for eight days during an admission for treatment. The patient was later readmitted having suffered a heart attack and died. A child of A, known as C, complained about their parent’s treatment and an independent watchdog found several failings from staff.
