Africa-Press – Cape verde. <\/strong><\/span>The relatives of Ant\u00f3nia da Cruz, who died four years ago, in S\u00e3o Vicente, ask for speed of justice in responding to an alleged case of medical negligence. Despite the pressure, they say they have not been informed about the progress of the process, which has left the family apprehensive.<\/p>\n

O caso remonta a Agosto de 2018, quando Ant\u00f3nia da Cruz procurou os servi\u00e7os m\u00e9dicos do centro de sa\u00fade do Porto Novo, em Santo Ant\u00e3o, com queixas de dor na coxa direita, com irradia\u00e7\u00e3o para o membro inferior do mesmo lado.<\/p>\n

As the victim’s son, Kleiton Djon, tells A NA\u00c7\u00c3O, the mother was treated and administered an ampoule of intravenous Tramadol, which, as she says, started a cardiorespiratory arrest minutes later.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey gave the injection without knowing if there were any contraindications. Already medicated, my mother was worse than she was, feeling bad with vomiting and convulsions\u201d, says Kleiton Djon.<\/p>\n

Apesar das tentativas de reanima\u00e7\u00e3o, a v\u00edtima n\u00e3o respondia aos est\u00edmulos, como detalha o filho, o que levou \u00e0 sua evacua\u00e7\u00e3o, em estado grave, para o Hospital Baptista de Sousa, em S\u00e3o Vicente. No entanto, o quadro agravou-se um dia depois, levando a paciente a \u00f3bito.<\/p>\n

Aut\u00f3psia confirma morte por inje\u00e7\u00e3o<\/p>\n

Dissatisfied with the outcome of the case, the family members requested an autopsy to determine the cause of death of Ant\u00f3nia da Cruz, aged 39. As stated in the document, which A NA\u00c7\u00c3O had access to, the victim died of respiratory depression after administration of intravenous Tramadol and acute edema in the lung.<\/p>\n

With the results of the autopsy in hand, the family members filed a criminal complaint with the S\u00e3o Vicente District Court in September 2018 against the doctor and nurse who treated Ant\u00f3nia da Cruz in Porto Novo and against another doctor. , in S\u00e3o Vicente, who was working under the Hospital’s on-call regime, which would not have answered the phone to help the victim in question.<\/p>\n

\u201cSlow of Justice\u201d<\/p>\n

However, four years after what happened, the family members complain about the lack of information and the slowness of justice in ending the case.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want justice. If there was a medical error, we want those responsible to be held accountable. However, the process has taken time and there is no information. One of the names mentioned in the process, the doctor in S\u00e3o Vicente, traveled to Cuba and, according to the Court, this has delayed things, but there is no point in delaying a process because one of the names is not in the country\u201d, says Kleiton Djon with indignation. .<\/p>\n

Ant\u00f3nia da Cruz, 39, left five children, one of whom is a minor and family members are asking for justice to be speeded up because, as they say, they will not rest until the culprits are punished.<\/p>\n
