AI-generated summary
Conway Perrie, a 75-year-old man in lawful custody at Long Bay Correctional Complex, died from complications of chronic renal disease (stage 4) with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus. He had been reviewed at Prince of Wales Hospital Renal Outpatient Clinic on 1 October 2019, where his kidney function was found to be stable with normal electrolytes and blood pressure control. He vomited during return transport, attributing this to motion sickness or diesel fumes, and declined nursing assistance. Found unresponsive the following morning, resuscitation was unsuccessful. Postmortem examination revealed advanced atherosclerotic disease and old cerebral infarction. The coroner found no evidence that medical care contributed to his death, his condition was stable at last review, and no clinical features at presentation predicted the acute deterioration.
