A medical has admitted that it administered the bad heart type during his care following the death of a delivery truck drivers who suffered severe injuries after being struck by falling practical from a bridge on Rama II Road in Samut Sakhon state.

On Tuesday night, two large chunks of practical fell from the Mahachai-Krathumbaen bridge, causing serious injuries to Amnat Thongkham, 46, seriously. He died at Samut Sakhon Hospital on Tuesday nights due to a damaged liver and bleeding in his stomach despite efforts to protect him.

After it was revealed that medical personnel had given Amnat heart kind A despite his having blood type B, Dr. Thanakrit Jitareerat, the Public Health Minister’s assistant, expressed concern about the health response on Friday.

He confirmed that a patient’s entrance of the problem was based on an inspection by the Ministry of Public Health.

Amnat had lost a lot of heart, and he was now in critical issue. Type O body, which is compatible with all body types, should have been used in accordance with method, but staff chose sort B because there was a lack of type O blood, which finally resulted in a lab error identifying it as type A.

Dr. Thanakrit said discussions had initially address the circumstances surrounding the falling cement before addressing the patient’s handling of the victim’s therapy and the body type mix-up.

Understanding the cause of the accident that caused the falling of the practical must be prioritized, he said. We will talk with the doctor about their errors in treatment once we have that clear.

Amnat was moved from Mahachai Hospital to Vibharam Samut Sakhon Hospital and then to the better-equipped Samut Sakhon Hospital following the incident involving the falling of masonry on Tuesday.

Parts of the delayed interstate expressway’s structure have long been the subject of accidents, injuring and perhaps killing drivers as they pass by.
