Health: 8 doctors are under investigation for the death of a 2-year-old boy
“The truth will be determined in the course of the procedure, but our biased technical advice recognizes these responsibilities.“. To tell AdnKronos is the lawyer Domenico Naccari, representing the family of Giacomo Francesco Saccomanno, the 2-year-old Calabrian boy who died at the Bambin Gesù hospital in Rome from a pacemaker, this is the accusatory hypothesis, implanted in reverse. For the death of the minor, 8 doctors are being investigated on the charge of cooperative manslaughter consisting of negligence, recklessness and inexperience. The evidentiary incident will take place in front of the investigating judge in Rome on Tuesday. “In our opinion – explains the lawyer to AdnKronos – the accusations are well founded, so obviously our evaluation will be the subject of judicial experts. We believe that there may have been a concatenation of responsibilities and events, naturally in the course of the evidentiary incident it will be necessary to determine if this chain of responsibility really existed or if there are individual responsibilities.“. The complaint before the judicial authorities was presented by the minor’s grandfather, the lawyer Giacomo Francesco Saccomanno. The child, from Rosarno (Rc), was born with a heart problem, a”complete congenital atrioventricular block“That is why in 2016 he was intervened in Taormina in the Mediterranean pediatric cardiological center of Bambin Gesù. According to the expert opinion, and according to the ordinance of admission of evidentiary incident of the Gip of Rome, the doctors who performed the surgery would have implanted the pacemaker reversed, essentially rejected. This error would have been causing what is called a “loop with progressive strangulation of the pulmonary artery and compression of the mitral annulus, thus contributing to the death” of the child, together with a series of so-called faults, negligence, recklessness and inexperience. In fact, two years after the operation, the child was hospitalized in the Bambin Gesù in Rome, but the cardiologists, again according to the accusatory reconstruction, would not have realized the seriousness of the case , a circumstance that would have led to a delay in conducting the examinations. In September 2018, the cardiologist, during a check-up, found heart problems, but the CT scan would have been scheduled in November. A month later the child’s health condition had worsened, so much so that a new surgery was necessary which, according to the accusatory hypothesis, would have followed an incorrect procedure, and two days later the child died.
