Hospital gives wrong patient heart procedure
The Associated Press Friday, March 12, 2004
Sarasota - The wrong patient received a heart
catheterization at Sarasota Memorial Hospital, officials
said Thursday.
Dr. Duncan Finlay, the hospital's chief executive officer,
declined to say how the mistake occurred, only that it
was discovered immediately after the invasive diagnostic
procedure was completed Monday.
"The patient had no harm done to them," Finlay said. "But
let me emphasize that any mistake of this nature is just as
important as one that might have done harm.
"We all live in dread that they might happen."
The hospital is not releasing the name of the patient or the
doctor due to privacy laws, but Finlay said an investigation
is under way, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported.

[ Eam sending this news to all newsgroups that the person [
Beav <[email hidden]> participates in, [

[ concerned taking any medical advice from him
whatsoever. [ Why? [ [ Over the years this person has
flamed me and others, told [ lies and did harm all in
the name of fun. This person [ could just as easily give
you improper medical advice and [ sit back and laugh for
the fun of it. Beware of him, he [ may act nice and
helpful but there is an evil side. [ [ Just to help
prove what I'm saying, I have given evidence [ below of
just one lie he was caught making. I'm posting [ this so
that from now on you can measure anything he has [ to
say with what his words are actually worth. Beav is a [
liar. I have proven without a shadow of dough that Beav
[ is a liar. Sure, it is a small lie this time, but what
[ about all the ones before, or after? [ [ On

[ Fknow some of you here will say, well, it was just a [
little lie. Well, any lie is a lie, big or small, and [
Beav lied and has done much worse. He told this lie to
[ hurt and do as much damage as he could, and it's time
for [ all who deal with him to know. He has proven his
[ willingness to lie and harm people just for fun, so [
anything he says could be a lie or to cause more damage
[ for his entertainment. [ [ Beav is a liar. Beware of
