[h=1]India-based SGH Doctor fined S$2,000 for injecting chemo drug into patient’s spinal canal[/h]admin / 4 days ago June 10, 2015


An India-based Singapore General Hospital (SGH) doctor was fined S$2,000 for injecting a chemotherapy drug into a patient’s spinal canal instead of his vein. The result of Dr Garuna Murthee Kavitha’s error could have caused serious neurological damage.
The Singapore Medical Council (SMC) said they took consideration of Dr Kavitha’s acceptance of responsibility and immediately flagged the error. The investigations of SMC also found that SGH had given the 32 year old doctor the wrong medicine, which Dr Kavitha herself also did not check. During administration, Dr Kavitha also did not check the chemotherapy form which clearly stated to inject the medication into a vein instead of the spinal canal.
Dr Kavitha, who was awarded the Best Medical Officer award by SingHealth in 2013, was found guilty of one charge of professional misconduct by the SMC tribunal. The patient has since died, and it was not known if the patient died because of Dr Kavitha’s error or not.

Do you still have confidence in Singapore’s government hospitals who employ doctors from unaccredited countries?

Don't worry, I'm sure this FT knew what he was doing... Probably using a special ayurvedic technique to heal the patient. :wink:

Looks like a case of gross professional negligence. She walked away with only a small fine? No wonder FTs like to work in sinkieland.

She was unable to read or she did not know understand what she read? If the doctor did not know how the drug should be administered, her qualification should be questioned and scrutinised. Did she buy her papers to work as a doctor?

As usual when you are dumb, there are fakes around.

The patient is having a one on one hard talk with LKY somewhere.

This is the type of doctor who would have never got the chance to operate on LKY. :wink:

I see SGH and NUH expanding their hospital campus. The NTF hospital at Jurong East seems much bigger compared to Alexandra Hospital.

Sinkieland only produces so many doctors each year, where do the extra doctors come from? :wink::rolleyes:

This India doctor really no standard. Any compensation given to the patient? Life is cheap in Spore nowadays, thanks to hiring of these third world doctors.

As long as the elites are not using his services and the profit margins of cronies in healthcare groups are maintained, who cares? :biggrin:

"Best medical officer" recipient caused serious harm to patient who has since died

Once upon a time, not too long ago--about five to six years methinks--our Sinkie ministry for health recruited an Ah Neh medical doctor who had a basic medical degree from Monash University, Australia.

We Sinkies don't know if any verification had been carried out by MOH to ensure that the qualifications of this Ah Neh medical doctor were genuine.

But we now know that she caused serious harm to a patient--who has since died--that she was treating at SGH.

Click the following link to read the full article, The Straits Times, June 10, 2015, Doctor fined $2k for chemo-drug error, page B3: http://postimg.org/image/qxhv3pbb9/

Note: A little bird from the West whispered to me that Garuna Murthee Kavitha migrated to Australia from India with her parents and later became a naturalized Aussie citizen. She's a dual India-Aussie citizen. And now she's a naturalized Sinkie citizen. Hurray for Sinkieland!

1. I would have focused on the fact that fucking hospital had given the wrong medication to the doctor in the first place.
2. Could this have been the start of all the mistakes following?
3. Could this have been the reason for the light punishment to the shitskin doc?
4. What about the hospital? Scot-free? No more responsibility?

Guaranteed her past training came from questionable institutions. Especially those which came from her 'home country'.

But so what? PaP loves them but they ensure these fucktards serve only the ppl of peasant grade! LoL
