I dont believe the refutation.

Iatrogenic deaths cover a wide range of errors and mistakes. They are not all immediate and sudden, either.

For example, my mom uad a problem that her gp and specialist couldnt figure out and it was because of one medicine she was on, prescribed for a certain problem. Iatrogenic deaths can be deaths caused by correctly prescribed meds that still wind up killing someone.

I was the one that figured out it was that particular medicine and she stopped taking it, and then I had to fix the problem damage that medicine caused in her. None of her doctors fivured it out nor offered her any treatment to correct the damage done.

She wound up in the ER twice for dehydration and low potassium. All due to inept and incorrect care, plus not determining the prescribed drug that was causing her problem.

She would have been an iatrogenic death if I didn’t figure it oit.

“I dont believe the refutation.”

Thats such a brilliant retort of an incredibly small mind.

” Iatrogenic deaths can be deaths caused by correctly prescribed meds that still wind up killing someone.”

And thus the doctors and nurses are the killers?
