@the.legal.np: Depositions aren’t about telling your whole story… they’re about answering exactly what’s asked. Every word is recorded, dissected, and can show up later in court. This is where cases are built or broken. #anesthesia #surgery #medicalmalpractice #truecrime #crna
If you ask if this is a liver or spleen I would recognize the liver . But if you show me something and tell me it is spleen while it is a liver , I would probably think hummm why this spleen looks this way.

She didn’t speculate. She documented what HE stated. That’s exactly how you should document.

I am not well versed in the legal side of things, but can you go more in depth about why the guy is asking questions in this style? It sounds almost leading “so you knew…” and he seems to ask almost the same question in a different way. And then asked her where she went to school, if felt like he was implying her schooling was not adequate? Is a deposition supposed to be objective?

I think it went easy. She should've had her chart/report in front of her the entire time though. The few times I've been deposed I asked for my report right away. I can see where the lawyer is going with the "if you see something say something" regardless of who's running the call. It doesn't matter if the chief of the department is running the scene. We'd rather it be pointed out and be nothing than not be pointed out and be something major. It's something we teach our firefighters, EMTs, and medics from the start.

This just drives home to me how important documenting EVERYTHING is and documenting CLEARLY. I love that she wrote “The surgeon stated…” Depositions definitely seem intimidating 😨

At first I couldn’t discern his end game. Seems he was blaming her for the situation. Can you answer I don’t know and let that stand?

How frustrating! The anesthesiologist is usually at the head of the patient, there are sterile drapes usually handling around the surgical site separating the anes away from the site (abd) I’m sure the patient was critical after he removed the liver and she had more things to worry about then examining the “specimen.”

Im on her side. I would not chart liver in the medical record. Maybe something like appears as a liver. But its not her fault and not her responsibility to say for sure it was a liver

Gregg | Nurse | homesteader :
I had to do a deposition, which was terrible. then the same case went to trial which was even worse. buuuuttt it was an eye opening experience. it changed the way I chart and the way I provide care.

How does the anesthesiologist role-play into the surgeon surgically removing this organ? Are they saying that she could’ve stopped it?

ED nurse tales :
I would have had a complete melt down/anxiety attack. I'm a tough ED nurse(retired), and I've had to give one deposition. Not as serious as this case and I didn't have direct contact with the patient when the incident happened. I took care of this chest patient BEFORE they went to a she's test where the incident occurred. I was silk a nervous wreck the whole time. ugh

LBTX01 :
When we take human gross anatomy, structures are often identified in the context of what other structures are anterior, posterior, superior, or inferior to the structure in question. Anesthesia often does not have a direct view into the abdomen in the same way the surgeon does during an open laparotomy so therefore would not be able observe the anatomical context and surrounding structures of any organ being dissected out as we do not have a view allowing us to look down into the abdomen. Only the OR team scrubbed in standing on stools can see directly down into the abdomen.

This case is wild, but having been an OR nurse… When you look at tissue, it is not easily recognizable. The heart is recognizable (as someone who has scrubbed dozens of heart transplants)… but when you pull tissue out of the body, I would say the only people that recognize what that is are the surgeons.
