| Diagnostic Information | |||||
| Final Diagnosis For Which Treatment Was Sought Including Patient's Actual Condition | |||||
| The patient presented to this health care practitioner with a complicated past medical history which included afib, history of MI, heart catherization, aortic valve replacement, diabetes and hypertension. She presented as a new patient for a cardiology workup post fall. | |||||
| Operation, Diagnostic, Or Treatment Procedure Rendered Causing The Injury | |||||
| This practitioner evaluated the patient post hospital visit due to a slip and fall. The patient presented and wanted to establish as a new patient and requested a cardiology workup. It was noted that the patient had been under the care of a cardiology and a primary care physician who was following the patient's INR's. The patient was evaluated and provided a date to return to the office to have her INR check. | |||||
| Diagnostic Code : | |||||
| Misdiagnosis Made, If Any, Of Patient's Actual Condition | |||||
| There was no misdiagnosis. The primary allegation against the practitioner was the failure to draw a PT/INR at the time of the patient's initial visit which resulted in the patient having a right middle cerebral artery stroke two days later. The experts disagreed with this allegation noting that the patient had been at a sub-therapeutic level for quite some time indicating that even if the INR's were performed on the initial visit, the stroke was going to occur anyway. The experts did not believe the care provided caused or contributed to the stroke. | |||||
