PRIMARY / PRINCIPAL DIAGNOSIS

20 September 2021

1. Frank arrived at Queanbeyan District Hospital at 10.33am and discharged at about 2.56pm, ample time for doctors to make a diagnosis.
   
   Queanbeyan Hospital discharge form states the principal (and only) diagnosis was Sepsis (see image below). Encyclopedia.com defines sepsis as “inflamatory response to the presence of microorganisms in the body” and “a bacterial infection in the bloodstream or body tissues.”

   Sepsis is teated with antibiotics, which Frank was given shortly after admission to Queanbeyan Hospital.
   

   Canberra Hospital records state Frank had an oxygen level of 85% (see image below). The record states:
   “Presenting History & Symptoms (including reason for encounter)”
   “Mr Kovacevic was transferred from QDH intubated with hypoxic respiratory failure….
   - Retrieved to TCH + intubated prior to transfer due to hypoxia Sp02 85%.

ISSUES IN QUESTION

1. Why was Frank primarily treated as a critical covid patient and immediately put on a ventilator (that has risk to life) when:

   a) his only diagnosis was sepsis;
   b) his oxygen saturation was 85%, which is NOT life threatening and manageable with a standard oxygen mask;
   c) he had rapid breathing of 32 breathes per minute?
   d) respiratory failure was not a diagnosis at all.

2. Why Frank was given life threatening hospital “treatments” and drugs, despite the ambulance officers having determined his condition as “no immediate life threat”.

3. Why did hospital doctors perform very high risk hospital procedures including intubation without informed consent, or any consent at all, for a condition that was not “diagnosed”, and when his condition was NOT life threatening.

4. Why was Frank given remdesivir immediately, and why did doctors refuse to seek informed consent from Frank and Nada and advise that the only purported benefit remdesivir offers is that it “may reduce hospital stay from 15 days to 11 days”, versus 53.1% probability of death.

DRUGGED TO DEATH

18 days of “hospital care” equated to18 days of being drugged and poisoned to death. Frank died with:

1. Multi Organ Failure: Known consequence of remdesivir.

2. Acute Kidney Injury: Known consequence of remdesivir.
   
   NIH has reported on “Kidney disorders as serious adverse drug reactions of remdesivir in coronavirus disease 2019”.

3. Ventilator associated pheumonia: Frank got ventilator associated pheumonia from the ventilator - a treatment the hospital did not have consent to do.
   
   The NIH describes Ventilator-associated pneumonia as “While critically ill patients experience a life-threatening illness, they commony contract ventilator-associated pneumonia. This nonsocomial infection increases morbidity and likely mortality… Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) are at risk for dying not only from their critical illness but also from secondary processess such as nosocomial infection. Pneumonia is the second most common nosocomial infection in critically ill patients, affecting 27% of all critically ill partients. Eightly-six percent of nosocomial pheumonia are associated with mechanical ventilation…”

4. Diabetic Ketoacidosis: Ambulance officers diagnosed hyperglycaemia, which is very high blood sugar. Hospital records show this was resolved within 12 hours.

5. Pressure injuries: Frank got pressure injuries to his lower left lip and his penis from the hospital treatments. Nada was informed the “pressure injuries” we the result of “proning” which is being flipped from his back to his stomach and then back onto his back again. As such, Frank who weighed about 95kg, and was paralysed and sedated and therefore dead weight, was flipped multiple times while he had a tube down his throat.

6. AF / Atrial ectopics: Irregular heart rhythem. Frank did not go into hospital with a heart condition.

7. LUL DVT: Deep vein thrombosis: Frank developed a blood clot in his arm. Frank did not go into hospital with blood clots.

8. Sub-segmental PE: Blood clots on lungs. Developed in hospital.

9. DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis repeated)

10. Narcotic tolerance: Developed in hospital as a consequence of being administered so many drugs by doctors. Frank was given a high level of “opioids” one of which was fentanyl. If contintually administered such drugs over a week, patients develop a tolerance where they no longer work.

Anomalies

1. Patient outcomes were: “Expected”.
   
   Canberra Hospital records state the patient outcome was death. As such, doctors expected Frank to die?
   

2. ICU Progress Summary: “*** Not for CPR”.
   
   The day prior to Frank’s death Bronwyn Avard called Nada at about 2pm to advise Frank was dying and had about 24 to 36 hours to live. She failed to advise the hospital scheduled a 7am infusion of a lethal quantity of midazolam, and hence knew death would occur with certainty. She subsequently arranged a letter recommending from ACT Health giving approval for Nada to enter the Australian Capital Territory and the Canberra Hospital to be with Frank during his last hours. Family was only permitted to enter the hospital to see dying patients.
   

   Bronwyn Avard advised Nada “not to cry” because that would cause the face mask to get wet which would mean Nada would need to be taken out of ICU and all PPE replaced.
   

3. Bronwyn Avard advised Nada that she could have as long as she wanted with Frank and that “generally people can only handle being in ICU for four hours”.
   Nada was only with Frank about one hour maybe one and a half hours when Bronwyn Avard decided to turn off Frank’s life support machines.
   

4. Bronwyn Avard was sitting behind Nada. Nada had her back to Bronwyn Avard and was facing her husband, holding his hand, stroking his leg and talking to him. At all times Nada was talking to her husband. Nada said words to Frank to the effect, “Baby, you can let go if you want. You can go to heaven and stop fighting this if you want. I will love you forever.”. Nada was not talking to Bronwyn Avard or giving her instructions or consent. Nevertheless Bronwyn Avard immediately came to Frank and starting turning off his kidney dialsys machine and then took the breathing tube out. She then disconnected the heart machine.

5. Nada did not ever authorise anything. In fact in a previous phone conversation Nada instructed Bronwyn Avard that she had to always keep giving life saving treatment because of Nada’s faith in God, and that life was not permitted to be terminated.
   
   

6. Donate Life Notified: “Yes”.

   Frank did not registered to donate his organs. The hospital did not seek, nor did Nada authorise, for Frank’s organs to be donated. Nevertheless, the doctor treating Frank at the time of his death, Bronwyn Avard, notified the organisation “Donate Life”, for the purpose of harvesting Frank’s organs.

7. Cremation Form: “Yes”.

   Immediately following Frank’s death Nada was ushered into social work Misty Purdy’s office together with the doctor treating Frank at the time of his death, Bronwyn Avard. Bronwyn Avard instructed Nada that Frank had to be cremated due to the fact he had covid. This instruction was an outlight lie as there was no legislation nor heath directive that stated covid victims had to be cremated, and Frank in fact was buried.

   The issue is that Bronwyn Avard referred Frank to “Donate Life” yet instructed Nada that he had to be cremated due to covid, which is a complete contradiction.
