Jury out at Savita Inquest
The jury has now left the chamber to begin their deliberations at the
final day of the inquest into the death of Savita Halappanavar.
Coroner Dr. Ciaran MacLoughlin had read his summary of the evidence heard
over seven days and has also outlined a number of recommendations.
The 11 person jury has been charged with two verdicts to consider – that
of a narrative verdict and that of medical misadventure.
The Coroner also made nine recommendations.
These include certain protocols on sepsis management, the adoption of a
modified early warning chart by all hospitals and the separation of
medical and nursing notes.
