A nurse who led the ward that cared for a popular Nottinghamshire market trader before his death has admitted their were delays and gaps in his care. Kate McGarry, ward sister for E16 at Queen's Medical Centre, told an inquest of significant delays in carrying out health screenings - called Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool - of David Knight.
Speaking at Nottingham Council House on Thursday, July 28, assistant coroner Elizabeth Didcock said: "They may not have contributed to David's death but they are some very concerning aspects. There are a number of issues that it raises."Mr Knight, of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, spent around five months in hospital in Nottingham before he died, having originally admitted himself to King's Mill Hospital in early 2021.
Dr Zaitoun, who carried out the post mortem, said Mr Knight had died as a result of a number of factors including a 40 per cent narrowing of his left heart chamber, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and ischemic heart disease. He told the inquest a "rare" fat embolism had developed on his lungs after surgery.
