Hospital Negligence Led to Baby’s Death | Bahamas News
Description
A newborn girl died just hours after birth due to a hospital’s fatal lapse in monitoring — a judge ruled Princess Margaret Hospital negligent for failing to watch mother and baby for 27 critical minutes before emergency surgery. Despite timely C-section and skilled execution, the delay outside the OR allowed fetal distress to worsen, leading to oxygen deprivation and death. The court found no excuse for the missing equipment or staff, criticized the lack of autopsy, and sided with the perinatal asphyxia theory. This tragic case serves as a stark warning: in high-stakes moments, constant vigilance isn’t optional — it’s essential.
