Chapter 24 3. Inextricable Knot

During the Qingming Festival, in front of a grassy grave, a middle-aged woman knelt on the ground and said, "Yangyang, my mother has brought you justice!" The emotion and scene made people cry. On May 10, 1992, in Baiyang Village, Kuixi Town, Anhua County, Hunan Province, Liu Yang, who was a guest at his grandmother's house, was accidentally shot through his left arm by his cousin playing with an air gun. Together they sent Liu Yang to the Kuixi Township Health Center for examination.After examining the wound, Ouyang Xiaoming, the doctor on duty, said that a debridement operation was needed, and issued a prescription: "Lidocaine injection 20ml × 2 tubes for local infiltration anesthesia, 0.9% sodium chloride 500ml × 2 bottles to rinse the wound." Pharmacist doctor Wu Mou asked, does the 5-year-old need two lidocaine?Au: I need two.Wu Mou gave two.Ouyang Xiaoming broke open two lidocaine and injected one around Liu Yang's wound. His assistant Huang also wondered: "Do you want to inject the other one too?" Ou said again: "Yes!" Most of the liquid medicine of lidocaine was injected around the wound on the other side of Liu Yang, and the wound debridement operation began. Twenty minutes later, Liu Yang's whole body convulsed, foaming at the mouth, and shortness of breath. Ouyang Xiaoming became anxious and immediately called other doctors to come and rescue him.But it was too late. After 40 minutes of rescue, Liu Yang's heart stopped beating. On May 15, 1992, the Anhua County Public Security Bureau conducted an autopsy and concluded that the maximum dose of lidocaine for a 5-year-old child should not exceed 5 milliliters, while Xiaoyang had been injected with 8 times the dose, and the death was determined to be a narcotic overdose. On June 18, 1992, the Anhua County Medical Appraisal Committee made an appraisal conclusion: "Due to the excessive dosage and high concentration of lidocaine, the central nervous system of the child Liu Yang was severely inhibited, resulting in central respiratory weakness and subsequent circulatory weakness. The death is a first-class medical technology accident. The person involved, Ouyang Xiaoming, is mainly responsible for the accident."

On June 30, 1998, the Anhua County Health Bureau made a decision to expel Ouyang Xiaoming and keep him. In addition, Ouyang Xiaoming and the hospital jointly compensated the family members with 3,000 yuan. Liu Yang's relatives were dissatisfied and believed that the 36-year-old Dr. Ouyang had been engaged in medical work for more than 10 years.Thus, starting from July 3, 1992, Liu Yang's mother, Liu Qiuxiang, began a difficult six-year petition.She kept going back and forth between county, city, and provincial units. In order to save money, she stayed in the lowest-end hotels and ate the cheapest meals. Sometimes she slept on the streets when she really had no money.For two Spring Festivals, she did not go home, and was still running around to appeal.Her husband thought it was useless to sue, so he went to the hospital without telling her to sign, and received 3,000 yuan for her daughter's life.Because of this, Liu Qiuxiang was so angry that she divorced her husband when she returned home.

After several twists and turns, under the supervision of relevant departments, in June 1997, Yiyang City Medical Appraisal Committee made a new appraisal and appraised it as a first-class medical liability accident.It's the difference between these two words, who would have thought how much hard work and bitterness Liu Qiuxiang put in it? On June 24, 1997, the Anhua County Court opened a trial. On July 8, 1998, the first-instance judgment was made. Ouyang Xiaoming violated prescription regulations and overdosed the drug. His behavior constituted the crime of medical malpractice. He was sentenced to 2 years in prison and suspended In 3 years, in Kuixi Township, the health center compensated 45,000 yuan for death compensation and mental damage.

Liu Qiuxiang finally sought justice for her son.However, she refused to accept the verdict, thinking how could a living life be spent with more than 40,000 yuan?In the past few years, she has spent tens of thousands of yuan on appeals and lawsuits.To this end, she filed an appeal. On November 11, 1998, the court of second instance upheld the original judgment. Liu Qiuxiang had no choice but to accept her fate—son, why did you fall into the hands of such an irresponsible doctor? In nearly two years, Zhang Ruiying ran around tenaciously and knelt down to many people, because she insisted that her son, who was in full bloom, died of a medical accident. She sued the Shenzhen Red Cross Hospital and demanded " a statement".

She will never forget what happened on the afternoon of February 12, 1997.In her complaint to the Futian Court, she described the situation at that time as follows: Her son Gui Jiahong was admitted to the hospital at 9:00 p.m. on February 11. By about 3:00 p.m. He was in a hurry and said: "Cold!" At this moment, the doctor told him to transfer to the ward. Zhang Ruiying told the doctor that "you can't move now."The chief physician, Wu, said: "Get up by yourself! What are you afraid of? This is a hospital. We are responsible for anything!" Zhang Ruiying's request to use a flat bed with oxygen and ECG monitors moved simultaneously was also rejected, and the doctor removed the patient's chest. Oxygen tube, at this time, the patient was short of breath and his face was purple. The medical staff did not take the initiative to rescue him, and the family members called the doctor to insert the ECG monitor in a hurry.The patient's eyes were wide open, his face turned from purple to gray, he let out a long breath, white foam appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he convulsed. At this time, he should be rescued urgently, but the medical staff stood by and watched, and some people shouted: "Look quickly! Look! It's a seizure!"  …

Zhang Ruiying believed that Gui Jiahong's death was entirely caused by a medical accident at the Red Cross Hospital, and demanded that the hospital pay 50,000 yuan in compensation and bear the litigation costs. The Red Cross Hospital wrote in the statement of defense: Gui Jiahong died of respiratory and circulatory failure caused by sporadic encephalitis, which is a death due to a disease.The hospital is serious and responsible for the diagnosis, treatment, rescue and nursing of patients, which is scientific and reasonable.Gui Jiahong's death was an inevitable consequence of a difficult and critical case. The hospital was not at fault in the diagnosis, treatment and care of him, nor was his death caused by the hospital's diagnosis, treatment and care.

Whether it is a medical malpractice shall be appraised by the Municipal Medical Malpractice Technical Appraisal Committee, and the committee's important basis is the forensic examination and appraisal.The problem is that there are two appraisals so far, and the two appraisals are obviously different. The Shenzhen Municipal Procuratorate's forensic medical examination report concluded that: "Gui Jiahong died of respiratory failure caused by sporadic encephalitis and brainstem damage." Regarding this report, Gui Jiahong's family members believe that the two doctors who participated in the autopsy did not sign their own conclusions, and the practice of the other two forensic doctors issuing the report did not conform to the procedures. Without a power of attorney from the judiciary, and without the signature of the reviewer, the test results were handed over to the Red Cross Hospital to make up the medical records, which was illegal.

At the request of the plaintiff, the Futian District Court commissioned the Ministry of Justice's Institute of Judicial Appraisal Science and Technology to appraise the 16 paraffin-embedded tissue blocks of Gui Jiahong's body and the blood of his parents. There were inflammatory lesions in the myocardial tissue of the heart; Gui Jiahong’s brain tissue section had pathological changes, so the diagnosis of viral encephalitis or “sporadic encephalitis” was based on insufficient evidence; It is difficult to ascertain the exact cause of Jiahong's death." In the face of these two appraisals, the appraisal report made by the Shenzhen Municipal Medical Accident Technical Appraisal Committee on October 28, 1998 pointed out that due to the "obvious differences" in the two appraisals, "it is difficult to make a conclusion on the cause of Gui Jiahong's death based on the available information." Clarify the appraisal opinion".

The most surprising thing in this case is that there is such an "analysis statement" in the appraisal certificate of the Institute of Judicial Appraisal Science and Technology of the Ministry of Justice: "According to Mendel's law of inheritance, all genetic genes of a child must come from both biological parents. ,...in the paraffin-embedded tissue blocks provided...B13, B21, B22, B32, H11, H12, H13, and H2 contained genes that neither Gui Jinfang (the father of the deceased) nor Zhang Ruiying had.” That is to say , the above-mentioned numbered wax-packed tissue block can almost certainly not belong to the deceased Gui Jiahong!

Zhang Ruiying insisted that her son died of a heart attack, not encephalitis.She believed the wax block had been "dropped". The production process of the wax block is as follows: the corpse is autopsyed in the pathological anatomy room of the Red Cross Hospital, and the wax block is stored in the hospital. Later, due to the need for accident identification, it is handed over to the Health Bureau for safekeeping. Next, the Health Bureau sent the wax block back to the Red Cross Hospital, and then handed it over to the court, which sent it to the Institute of the Ministry of Justice for identification.Therefore, the units associated with these wax blocks include the Red Cross Hospital, the Health Bureau and the Futian Court.They all said that they were puzzled by the fact that the wax block was inconsistent with Gui Jiahong's genetics, "I don't know what happened."The judge in charge of hearing the case at the Futian Court said: The wax block was obtained from the Red Cross Hospital according to legal procedures, and the number on it was also compiled by the Red Cross Hospital. Now the wax block is still kept in the court, waiting for further investigation .

Zhang Ruiying said that she didn't want to make trouble with anyone, but just wanted to find out how her son died. She hoped that the relevant departments would deal with this matter as soon as possible without delaying it. Why did the wax block, which is an important evidence in this case, go wrong?Who should be responsible for this?It is unknown when these questions will be revealed. Huang Liang, if that medical accident hadn't happened, she would be a fourth-year student at Chongqing University this year.However, four years ago, just because of an ordinary appendicitis operation, the girl's death notice and university admission notice were delivered to her home almost at the same time. On July 18, 1995, 18-year-old Huang Liang had an appendectomy when she was about to go to college.This operation, called "too small" by the hospital, cut off Huang Liang's young and healthy life.The hospital and its competent department insisted that it was not a medical malpractice.For this reason, Huang Liang's parents embarked on a long, physically and psychologically destructive legal process. This is a case that has attracted wide attention from the society, and it is also a tragedy that everyone who heard it cried and regretted! At the author's request, Huang Liang's father, Huang Dejin, sent more than 300,000 words of materials, which enabled the author to understand the ins and outs of the case in detail. In July 1995, Huang Liang, a fresh graduate of Ningxia Changqing No. 4 Middle School who just finished the college entrance examination, was relaxed.Although the test scores have not yet been announced, the results of the estimated scores make this girl who has been excellent in character and learning since elementary school confidently look forward to a bright future: key universities have already waved to her! Huang Liang's father, Huang Dejin, and mother, Pang Shuyuan, began to prepare the luggage for their proud daughter. The careful couple wanted to do everything they needed to do.Since her daughter was in the third year of high school, she often complained that her stomach hurts, which caused their worries.In order to make their daughter study happily, healthily and happily after going to college, they decided to use the rare time before going to college to check for her daughter again and relieve the pain. They took their daughter to the staff hospital of the No. 3 Oil Extraction Plant of Changqing Oilfield where they were located.The hospital's examination concluded that Huang Liang was suffering from chronic appendicitis, and the hospital was fully capable of performing appendectomy.The doctor said: "Cut the appendix, a minor operation!" On the second day after going to the hospital for examination, that is, at 8:00 am on July 18, 1995, Huang Liang walked into the operating room with a relaxed face. Before entering the door, she turned her head and smiled happily at her father, reassuring him.Unexpectedly, this smile became the last and eternal smile she left for her relatives!During the operation, Huang Liang's breathing and cardiac arrest stopped.At noon, when Huang Dejin and Pang Shuyuan were allowed to go in to see their daughter, Huang Liang was already in a deep coma, almost dead.Experts were invited for consultation and rescue, but no improvement was seen. In the early morning of July 21, Huang Liang was transferred to the intensive care unit of the Affiliated Hospital of Ningxia Medical College in Yinchuan City, but she was unable to recover. On August 10, Huang Liang died. In the past few days, Huang Liang's admission letter from Chongqing University arrived. On the day of Huang Liang's death, Huang Dejin called the Workers' Hospital of the Third Oil Production Plant in Yinchuan to request an autopsy. It was the family members who asked the hospital to do an autopsy, but the hospital refused, the mystery of which is thought-provoking). On August 30, Huang Liang's body turned into a few wisps of green smoke, and her ashes drifted down the Yellow River into the sea. Although the Health Department of the Changqing Petroleum Exploration Bureau, the competent department of the Workers Hospital of the Third Oil Production Plant, did not go to Yinchuan for an autopsy at the request of the family of the deceased, it sent people from Qingyang, Gansu, where the Petroleum Bureau is located, to Yanchi, Ningxia, the headquarters of the Third Oil Production Plant, on August 17. Dashuikeng Township, County, made an "appraisal conclusion" more than 100 kilometers away when it believed that "there is no need for an autopsy".In this appraisal conclusion, it is full of words of praise such as "clear diagnosis", "correct operation", "appropriate method", "correct measures", "timely rescue", "it is not easy". The final conclusion is: " This death case does not meet the conditions for constituting a medical malpractice, and it is an anesthesia accident." He also said: "The cause of death is clear, and there is no unclear clinical diagnosis, so there is no need for an autopsy." After arguing for a long time, Huang Liang lost her life in a series of correct and correct operations.That is to say, everything is fine, Huang Liang deserves to be like this!The Huang Dejin couple could not accept such a conclusion.What is particularly difficult for them to accept is that after the tragedy, the hospital never came to apologize, not even a word of comfort.Huang Dejin and his wife were irritated!They want to use the law to seek justice for their daughter. After getting involved in the legal process, Huang Dejin discovered how difficult it is to fight a medical lawsuit.First of all, he knew nothing about medicine. In front of a lot of nouns and terms, Huang Dejin was almost blind; second, he didn't know the truth about what happened to his daughter on the operating table. All he knew was that the surgeon was preparing to insert a needle When suturing Huang Liang's incision, the patient was found to be cyanotic. The hospital later refused to admit this. All these things were destroyed by the hospital; thirdly, Huang Liang had been cremated, and the autopsy, which could provide the most reliable evidence of death, was not done. All judgments can only be made based on the medical records provided by the hospital and the doctor's dictation.None of these three items is beneficial to Huang Dejin. Huang Dejin felt that he and the hospital had been in an unfair confrontation from the very beginning. As an organization, the hospital could ignore many legitimate and legal demands of him, but what about him?In many cases, it can only be said that every day should not be done, that the ground is not working, that there is a grievance, and there are grievances that cannot be appealed. He started turning to the legal profession, which responded strongly.Huang Wenjun, a lawyer at Nanjing Jinling Law Firm, believes that this case is a typical medical malpractice in terms of pathology and liability.After pointing out the various mistakes made by the hospital, he said indignantly: "The appendix operation killed people. This should be regarded as a fantasy in today's medical and medical progress." Zhu Yan, a lawyer from Jiujiang Law Firm, said: "The operation Without the signature of the family members, it violated the rules and regulations. It was discovered that the respiratory arrest and cardiac arrest occurred during the operation. Heart changes, etc. During the operation, the anesthetist must monitor the blood pressure and heart every few minutes to prevent accidents and rescue in time, so it can be said that the anesthetist’s monitoring is not effective.” An Jianxiong, an anesthesiologist at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, confirmed this point. He said in a letter to Huang Dejin and his wife: "There is an obvious mistake in the appraisal certificate, 'the heartbeat stopped for 7 minutes, and it is not easy to rescue and survive for 20 days'." It is absolutely unscientific. In fact, if the resuscitation is performed within 4 to 6 minutes, the success rate is extremely high, but in this case the resuscitation was not successful, indicating that the cardiac arrest has exceeded 4 to 6 minutes, that is, the anesthetist did not observe the patient closely. "Another surgeon said that as long as the sudden cardiac arrest is discovered in time, put on an oxygen mask and take a few breaths of oxygen to come over. On the operating table, many people just came over, but Huang Liang failed to come over. Apart from the fact that it was discovered too late and the rescue was not timely, there is no other reason to say. In order to win this lawsuit, Huang Dejin, who knew nothing about medicine, began to study anesthesiology and surgery, learn hospital work regulations, and collect relevant cases.For more than three years, he was reprimanded many times for copying books in bookstores, but he also received enthusiastic help from medical experts and lawyers in Beijing, Nanjing, Jiujiang and other places. He almost became half anesthesiologist and legal expert.From the more than 300,000-word materials he sent to the author, we can imagine the hardships and tribulations he experienced on the way to seek justice for his daughter.He titled these materials "Difficult "Death" Litigation", which includes four parts: the ins and outs of the case, relevant laws and regulations, theory and judicial practice, and typical cases that occurred in the country. Each part has a preface and an afterword .Among them, "Excerpts from Discussions of Famous Experts on Surgical Anesthesia" and "Strict Regulations on Clinical Anesthesia" are tens of thousands of words, involving dozens of monographs on anesthesiology and surgery, both in terms of theoretical academic value and clinical practical value. Neither should be underestimated.It is no exaggeration to say that many anesthesiologists in the hospital may not have mastered his comprehensive and profound knowledge of anesthesiology, at least they have not read so many books by him.Huang Dejin, who has become half an anesthesiologist, finally understands what is called "anesthesia accident". The book "Adverse Drug Reactions" states that careless observation of patients and improper use of drugs are the common causes of many "accidents" and complications. The "Practical Anesthesia Manual" pointed out that the causes of anesthesia's death are often related to the following anesthesia reasons: (1) errors in anesthesia medication (including wrong medication and wrong dosage); (2) errors in anesthesia techniques; (3) improper administration methods; ( 4) Unable to master medical instruments proficiently; (5) Careless observation of anesthesia. "Clinical Anesthesiology" believes: "The negligence in anesthesia work is an important reason for anesthesia accidents." However, in medical disputes, the victim is always in a passive position.When you don't understand those esoteric medical knowledge, he says you don't understand; when you understand, he can ignore it. Professor Wu Jialin, the former president of Ningxia University, a famous jurist and 72 years old, was also angered at this time!Writing books, giving lectures and other social activities made him so busy that he didn't have the energy to handle the case, but after hearing the case, he jumped up and took over the case.For this reason, he traveled between Yinchuan and Yanchi several times, spending a lot of time and energy, and played an important role in the filing and trial of this case.Huang Dejin and his wife said in the letter to the author, you must write about Professor Wu in the book, write about these legal workers, journalists who uphold justice, and those honest and kind medical workers. Among them, there is one person worth mentioning, that is Li Heng, a surgeon at the People's Hospital of the Autonomous Region for more than ten years, who voluntarily acted as the second entrusted agent to appear in court.Now many victims of medical lawsuits are unable to win. The key is that apart from the injustice of medical appraisal, the victim lacks medical knowledge, let alone the inside information of the hospital.As a doctor, and the current dean of the defendant is also an alumnus of his same grade, he dared to come out as the victim's representative, which required such courage and a sense of justice.He said: "A lawsuit against a hospital is like a civil lawsuit against an official. It is very difficult to win. Now there is a saying: 'Third-A' (hospital) has become a 'Three-Fake'. In order to maintain the level of the hospital, some patients died and changed. The situation of the medical records, and the so-called mutual care of doctors and doctors. I have no worries about being an agent, I think about fairness and justice, and not dealing with people." He raised a lot of doubts about Huang Liang's diagnosis and treatment process from the perspective of medical responsibility technology , thinking that the so-called anesthesia accident is untenable and should be entirely the responsibility of the hospital. Although medical care exists objectively, honest medical workers still account for the majority.In a letter to Huang Dejin and his wife, an anesthesiologist from Peking Union Medical College pointed out many mistakes made by the hospital in the anesthesia process.He said in the letter: "As a fellow anesthesiologist, I shouldn't have been involved in this matter, but I couldn't help crying when I learned about your daughter's special situation. Here are the following opinions: 1. It will not be found out from the case. Too big a loophole, the reason is that if there is a real problem, you may not be able to write it, even if you write it, you can still change it..." Qiu Huade, a doctor of medicine and chief surgeon who studied in Germany, immediately said after reading the relevant materials: "I think that in the case of Huang Liang, the hospital of Changqing No. 1. With regard to the cause of death, "anesthesia accident" is a very vague concept. Strictly speaking, only situations such as being extremely sensitive to narcotic drugs can be barely included in the scope of "anesthesia accident". It happens shortly after the anesthesia, it doesn't happen until near the end..." However, these anesthesiologists and surgical experts can't shake the tree of power no matter how much they learn, no matter how convincing they are. On May 22, 1996, Huang Dejin and his wife filed a lawsuit in the court of Yanchi County, Ningxia, where the third oil production plant is located.After filing the case, the court entrusted Yanchi County Medical Accident Technical Appraisal Committee to make an appraisal.This was an appraisal of dystocia, and the family members urged many times. It was not until December 5, 1997, more than ten months later, that the appraisal committee came up with an appraisal that was not much different from the appraisal conclusion of the Health Department of Changqing Petroleum Bureau. "Anaesthesia Accident". Huang Dejin told reporters that for his daughter's lawsuit, from December 1996 to March 1998, he went to Yanchi no less than 15 times, and even attorney Wu Jialin went to Yanchi nearly 10 times. , sounds daunting. Day after day of suffering, Huang Dejin and Pang Shuyuan finally survived until March 26, 1998, when the court opened.In court, Huang Dejin and his wife, who spent more than two years turning themselves into half medical professionals in order to seek justice for their dead daughter, counted the mistakes and dereliction of duty of the hospital in this case: 1. According to the regulations of the ministry, the patient's family or unit must sign and agree before performing the operation, and inform them of the possible risks during the operation. The fact is that the hospital has neither made the necessary explanation nor performed the parent's signature procedure; 2. According to regulations, general surgical anesthesiologists should contact the patients one day in advance, familiarize themselves with the patient's medical records and various inspection results, and examine the patients in detail. Those who have just arrived in the operating room, did not observe the patient the day before the operation, and are not familiar with the case and various inspection results; 3. According to regulations, the patient's blood routine, urine routine, stool routine and heart and lung function should be checked before the operation. The fact is that the hospital only does one of them, that is, the blood routine test; 4. According to regulations, after the anesthetist injects the anesthetic, he should carefully observe the changes of the condition and the reaction after the injection of the anesthetic at the bedside.The fact is that the patient’s lips were cyanotic and the heartbeat disappeared due to hypoxia, but it was first discovered by the surgeon, and there was a process between the appearance of cyanosis and the disappearance of the heartbeat. failed to do so; 5. Improper rescue measures. Some instruments and equipment were not used, such as heart rate monitors and respirators. The former were not used at all, and the latter were not used in time.During the rescue, even the oxygen tube leaked.In addition, there are patients who do not carry their medical records when they transfer to another hospital, and the medical records have traces of alterations, etc. Facing the plaintiff’s questioning, the defendant’s No. 3 Oil Extraction Factory Workers’ Hospital did not make a strong rebuttal, but repeatedly emphasized that although some problems exist, they are not the direct cause of death; this hospital is only a secondary hospital, and the conditions and medical level Limited; this case should be based on medical appraisal conclusions... Huang Dejin and his wife made a claim of 261,800 yuan in compensation.Huang Liang's mother, Pang Shuyuan, said that no amount of 10,000 yuan is too much, because we have lost our daughter and our joy, and no amount of money can bring us back to the happy times in the past.The reason why I want this money is to get back the value of life, and I want to remind the hospital staff to value life, the lives of other children and the joy of other families. On May 29, 1998, the Yanchi County Court finally made a verdict.The court held that: "The defendant violated the rules and regulations and operational practices during the treatment of Huang Liang, but there was no direct causal relationship between this behavior and Huang Liang's death. The court entrusted the technical appraisal of medical accidents in Yanchi County The appraisal made by the committee should be adopted in accordance with the law, that is, Huang Liang's death is an 'anesthesia accident'. Since Huang Liang's death caused the plaintiff to suffer huge mental and economic losses, and the defendant was at fault, the defendant should pay the plaintiff A certain amount of economic compensation will be given.” The court ruled that the Hospital of the Third Oil Extraction Factory should bear all of Huang Liang’s medical expenses totaling 70,719.70 yuan, and an additional “economic compensation” of 40,000 yuan should be paid. Medical identification clearly played an important role. "Appraisal" has become an insurmountable mountain, and even the law seems helpless. The plaintiff believes that the two appraisals do not meet the statutory requirements and cannot be used as the basis for the verdict.Only four people participated in the appraisal by the Health Department of Changqing Petroleum Exploration Bureau, two of whom were the superiors of the hospital, and one had served as the instructor of the anesthesiologist in this case.More importantly, they did not go to the rescue site, nor did an autopsy after the patient's death, based only on the medical records revised by the hospital.The appraisal by the Yanchi County Medical Malpractice Technical Appraisal Committee was made when the appraisal conditions were lost. The appraisal was made more than two years after the case occurred, only relying on the tendentious introduction of the relevant personnel of the hospital, without hearing the plaintiff's appeal, the hospital The dean and another medical staff actually participated in the appraisal of themselves and exercised their voting rights.After making the above statement, Huang Dejin said: "Can a false, illegal, and unqualified appraisal be used as the basis for a verdict?" Taking a step back, even if the case is an "anesthesia accident" as stated in the appraisal conclusion, does "anesthesia accident" definitely not belong to medical malpractice?Professor Wu Jialin, the attorney for the plaintiff, said: "A healthy young woman in her prime, who died due to a small appendix operation, can she just use 'anesthesia accident' as a prevarication?" After the judgment of the first instance was made, the hospital did not express any objection.The plaintiff appealed to the Yinnan District (now Wuzhong City) Intermediate Court. They believed that the court's determination of the facts was unclear and there were many major mistakes, which were far from the requirements of the lawsuit. Huang Dejin and his wife introduced the current situation of the case in a letter to the author: after entering the second trial in August 1998, a court session was held on October 13, and the court submitted a commissioned appraisal report to the Yinnan Medical Appraisal Committee in November, and since then There was no news.Huang Dejin and his wife went to the Medical Appraisal Committee many times to urge them, but so far there has been no result.Maybe they are too busy. Compared with their busy work, what is the death of a girl? To this day, Huang Liang's parents are still waiting hard to get an explanation for their daughter. They have been waiting for four years. How long do we have them to wait? Huang Dejin said: "We will resolutely continue to fight. If the second trial fails, we will appeal until the last moment of our lives!"
