In the soi about 50 metres, turn left at the 3rd electric pole leaning backwards, then another 50m to the lounging soi dogs, and turn right at the 7-11. Can't miss it really. Good thing they're not naming it though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer90210 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Not to worry. The doctor who would have been charged with unintended homicide, under a civilised criminal justice system, will get away free here with perhaps a public apology and a boquet of flowers to the kith and kin of the victim.

Doctor MUST and , Is OBLIGED to test ,before surgery, if she was alergic to the anesthesic’s reactions. Really? News to me. I've had bad reactions under two. I've been anesthetized five times. The first reaction was in Gosford Australia, waking fully suicidal. It wore off after a night. But had I found an open window I would have jumped, and I hate heights. They suspected a gas "overdose" thanks Dr. <deleted>! Second was last year in Philippines. I nearly died from several issues, pneumonia, sputum flooded lungs -hence the theatre - difficult intubation, skyrocketing BP as a consequence, but the "allergy" to the gas was a cross-tolerance because of my hell-raising expat ways. In short one must long-term modify booze intake to have a better anaesthetic outcome. It's not just pre op. Your intake is cumulative, and an emergency can happen anytime. Oddly enough, I wouldnt have minded leaving then. I can think of worse ways than just falling asleep. Lawd only knows what horrors in lie ahead in advanced old age. I have cut back on booze to near zero since, I've found a better, cheaper substitute anyway. Just waiting for the legal dinosaurs here to get with the fashion in Canada, apparently green is the new black.

snoop1130 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Probe into woman's death at Bangkok plastic surgery clinic By The Nation Police is investigating the death of a 72-year-old Thai woman who suffered a severe allergic reaction to anesthesia while undergoing an operation at a newly-opened plastic surgery clinic in Soi "Town in Town" 6 in Bangkok's Wang Thong Lang district on Thursday afternoon. An initial autopsy at the Police General Hospital showed that the unnamed woman's liver had ruptured and some ribs were broken. Results of other tests were expected in 15 days, a source said. Metropolitan Police Area 4 chief Pol Maj-General Theerapong Wongratpitak said the doctor, the nurse and the nursing assistant who were involved in the woman's treatment at the clinic had been interviewed. They said the woman - who had been a client at another branch of the clinic since 2012 - came into the clinic to receive the treatment at about 4pm on Thursday. They told police that, as a test by anesthesia pad yielded no allergic reaction, the doctor proceeded to give her 24 jabs of anesthesia, totaling 12cc. He then went to the restroom before starting the operation. When he returned, the doctor was told by the nurse that the patient had developed abnormal symptoms including significantly low blood pressure so they gave her first-aid treatment and called for an ambulance. The woman was pronounced dead at 7.30pm. Theerapong said police would look into related matters such as the clinic's previous record and personnel licences and the medicines used in the procedure as well as whether the six-storey chophouse the clinic is located in adheres to the Building Act. The clinic is the second branch to open since October 9 and is still in process of applying for a medical facility permit. Police initially charged the unnamed clinic owner with operating a medical facility without permission (punishable with a maximum five-years imprisonment and/or a maximum Bt100,000 fine), he said. The other charge of recklessness causing another person's death would be filed later when police gather sufficient evidence, he added. National police chief Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda has instructed investigators to thoroughly probe the case to boost the public confidence, said police spokesman Pol Colonel Krissana Pattanacharoen. The deceased woman's family said only that they would let justice run its course in terms of the police investigation against the clinic, as the family had no doubts about the cause of death. They collected the body from the morgue for religious rites at Wat Prok.

Ruptured liver and broken ribs, She only went in for a "Facelift", and 24 injections seems a bit excessive, well she paid the price for her vanity, RIP regards worgeordie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweatalot Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) ruptured liver, broken ribs come from trying to resuscitate her not necessarily an indicator of mistreatment. If it was an anaphylactic reaction the correct drugs applied would have helped - but we don't know - may be they did. Sometimes you lose a battle against death - but again for a cosmetic procedure? Was the patient informed about the risck? Edited October 12, 2018 by sweatalot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how does a patient who is being given CPR, get "Ruptured Liver" ???. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
