Hospital Death (Clinical Procedures and medical management) related deaths
Concerns summary (AI summary) Trust policy on heparin administration was not followed, including failure to weigh the patient, consult haematology, or take post-hydration bloods. Critical dosage advice for underweight patients was also easily missed due to poor visibility on posters.
Action Taken (AI summary) The trust implemented three new policies and a chart for unfractionated heparin administration. The guidelines now state that if the APTTR at 6hrs is outside the expected range then the Consultant Haematologist should be contacted for further advice in those patients at the extreme ends of the weight ranges i.e. <41kg and >90kg.
