Plaintiff is asserting a professional liability claim against this Defendant. A Certificate of Merit is filed herewith. 5. The facts and occurrences hereinafter related took place between October 19, 2008, and November 3, 2008, at Defendant Holy Spirit Hospital. 6. On October 19, 2008, Quang Tan Tran went to Defendant Holy Spirit Hospital and was admitted for history of flu-like symptoms for three weeks, chest pain worsening, and sharp with non-productive cough, fever, chills, mild respiratory distress, and inspiratory and expiratory wheezes in the left lung base. 7. According to the EMT, Mr. Tran denied chest pain on exertion and was without cyanosis or diaphoresis (perspiration), and without "acute cardiac or respiratory symptoms." 8. Vital signs were Sp02<94%, and weight of 142. 9. The cardiovascular exam showed regular rhythm and rate, no jugular venous distention, no gallop, no friction rub, and full and equal pulses. 413943 2 10. A systolic murmur was not described further, skin color normal without lesions but febrile. No pedal edema (foot swelling). 11. An EKG showed a sinus rhythm with elevated ST segments in anterior leads (V2, V3) without reciprocal change. 12. Chest x-ray showed increased vascular congestion, "generous" mediastinum and a left effusion, cardiomegaly. 13. On October 19, 2008, the radiologist noted pleural and parenchymal opacity throughout the left lung base with obscured left hemidiaphragm, with probable pleural effusion. 14. Mr. Tran's past medical history included hypertension, elevated cholesterol, and hepatitis C. 15. Medications at the time of his hospitalization included Advair, Benicar, Caduet, and Aspirin with no known drug allergies. 16. On October 19, 2008, there was no overt pulmonary edema. 17. October 19, 2008, laboratory results included WBC 15,400 H [high], Hgb 11.9 L [low], PLT 303, Seg 64, Lymph 5 L, Bands 19 H, Glucose 161 H; Liver Function: Total Protein 8.3, Albumin 2.6 L; Renal Function: BUN 22 H, Creatinine 1.1; Istat Poct: 10:27 BUN 21, Creatinine 1.3, and BNP 218.0 H at 10:23; Cardiac Function: CK 39 (38 - 174 ), CK MB 2.1 (0.0 - 6.8), TNT [Troponin T] 0.01 (0.00 - 0.03); Blood Gases: pH 7.50 H, PCO2 33 L, PO2 56 L; Urinalysis: Occult Blood Large A [abnormal], Protein 30 mg./dl. A, RBC 21-30 A, Bacteria 3+ A. 18. Despite history, physical exam, and laboratory results, on October 19, 2008, Mr. Tran was diagnosed as STEMI [ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction] and sent to the cardiac catheterization lab with a presumptive diagnosis of myocardial infarction, without 413943 3 elevated cardiac enzymes, a benign cardiac exam, no echocardiogram, and an obvious infectious process including lungs, hematuria, and proteinuria. 19. According to the Cardiac Catheterization lab report, lab results were checked and on chart at 10:40 a.m. on October 19, 2008, i.e., normal CK, CKMB, Troponin T, benign BNP, and abnormal blood gas in a patient with pneumonia. 20. Mr. Tran had pneumonia with hypoxia and ischemia, but no coronary artery disease or MI and underwent an unnecessary cardiac catheterization procedure with unnecessary exposure to radiation and contrast (100 ml Visipaque 320 mg/ml) with 1.40 minutes of fluoroscopy. 21. The pneumonia caused progressive hypoxia and ultimately a decision was made to perform a left thoracotomy decortication and drainage of suspected left chest abscess according to the October 23, 2008, Record of Operation. 22. On October 23, 2008, the day of surgery, Mr. Tran required emergent intubation in the early morning for respiratory failure. 23. The October 22, 2008, Pre-Operative Anesthesia Evaluation and Plan indicated that Mr. Tran had a small mouth and a Mallampati score of III with a note of possible difficult intubation. 24. On October 23, 2008, Defendant Kingsley attempted to exchange the endotracheal tube for a double lumen endotracheal tube. 25. Defendant Kingsley was unable to pass the double lumen tube and removed the tube exchanger. 26. Defendant Kingsley was unable to ventilate the patient adequately either with a laryngeal mask airway, or with a laryngoscope. 413943 4 27. Mr. Tran desaturated significantly and developed a bradycardic arrest and CPR was initiated; Mr. Tran received an estimated 20 minutes of CPR. 28. Defendant Kingsley performed a tracheostomy on October 23, 2008, total procedure time according to the Anesthesia Record was 1139 -1330. 29. Mr. Tran's medical condition continued to decline; he developed ARDS, required ventilation, and EEG showed severe diffuse encephalopathy with burst suppression, developing renal failure. 30. On or about November 3, 2008, Quang Tan Tran died. COUNTI NGOC-LOAN T. VO INDIVIDUALLY AND AS ADMINISTRATRIX OF THE ESTATE OF QUANG TAN TRAN, DECEASED v. CHARLES P. KINGSLEY, M.D. 31.
