Four children died in Oxford hospital following cardiac surgery - the deaths are to be investigated.
Will they ask the following questions?
Question 1
Could the cause of the child's heart defect be a medication the mother was taking during pregnancy? http://pregnancychildbirth.suite101.com/article.cfm/ssris_linked_to_heart_defect
Question 2
Is the fact there are only 12 anaesthetists in the country qualified to do pre-surgery tests for allergies to anaesthetics, leading to avoidable deaths?
