New Delhi: The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC) New Delhi recently exonerated a Hospital and its four doctors- including Medical Superintendent, Gynecologist, General Surgeon and Anaesthetist, from charges of medical negligence while treating a patient suffering from complete placenta praevia Grade-IV, a high-risk obstetric condition.
In order to save the patient's life, the general surgeon performed an emergency termination of pregnancy after obtaining consent and since the patient's attendants did not give consent for a hysterotomy, the patient was later referred to Lady Hardinge Hospital, observed the Commission.
