An autopsy has now been carried out on the body of the 73-year-old, who died in Bad Ischl hospital after a mix-up. But there is still no clarity about the link with death. So the investigation is still ongoing.
Was the accidentally administered painkiller in the Bad Ischl hospital, which was intended for the roommate, responsible for the death of a 73-year-old patient? The autopsy of the pensioner, who died of a heart attack shortly after the fatal mistake, yielded no clear results. According to the Welsh Public Prosecution Service, the two nurses who were in the room while the medicines were being distributed are still being investigated on suspicion of manslaughter by negligence.
Nurses back to work
A toxicology report is still pending, from which more detailed information will hopefully be obtained. The patient had previously had a serious illness, especially of the heart, and spontaneous cardiac arrest would not have surprised the doctors. However, the coincidence with the incorrect administration of the very powerful painkiller could also have caused a premature death. The two nurses are back in the hospital.
