IMA got an access to part inquiry reports in the Fortis and the Max case, respectively. Here are some excerpts which should also be known to the medical fraternity
Fortis case: IMA Notes Based on inquiry report
IMA Comments
IMA is developing a LAMA policy so that these types of disputes do not occur when a case reaches a state of no recovery.
Max Case: Some excerpts from the government report
IMA Comments: Not keeping record is a misconduct and not a criminal offence.
IMA Comments: The very fact they also missed signs of life confirms the newborn was clinically dead (when the brain is alive and heart can get revived later when the body temperature increases due to warmth. Clinical death period is 10 minutes in every death and up to 4 hours in hypothermia)
IMA Comments: This is a record keeping mistake and not criminal negligence.
