haemorrhagic stroke complicating anticoagulation and intravenous antibiotic therapy in the setting of right upper arm deep vein thrombus that developed during hospitalisation for traumatic brain injury sustained in a bicycle crash
AI-generated summary
Jason Lee Patmore, aged 44, died from a haemorrhagic stroke that developed as a complication of anticoagulation and intravenous antibiotic therapy given for a right upper arm deep vein thrombosis acquired during hospitalisation for traumatic brain injury. Mr Patmore sustained the traumatic brain injury in a bicycle crash on 29 July 2015 when riding at excessive speed (>50 km/h) on a residential street. He lost control of his bicycle while negotiating a bend, likely due to speed, and possibly in reaction to an oncoming vehicle. The crash caused a traumatic subarachnoid haemorrhage and diffuse brain injury. He was treated in ICU but remained unconscious. On 24 August 2015, he suffered a major intracerebral haemorrhage and died the following day. The coroner found no clinical errors in hospital management, and no recommendations were made regarding medical care.
