Do you think doctors sometimes kill people on purpose?

[OfTheCross]

This shyt was hilarious to me

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

No, and one word will be enough to explain why: Malpractice.​

 

[JBQH]

Definitely, sometimes them and nurses let people pass or even kill them then call it quality of life choices.

I feel like there's always a risk of dying during every medical procedure. And I say that as someone thats had a couple procedures, one of them an 8 hour major surgery. One thing goes wrong and I could have died. We just trust that medicine is advanced enough where the risk is minimal enough to not have to worry about it.

With that being said, I think that the majority of deaths that do occur happen as a result of negligence, not bad intent.

I had to get surgery on my knee at 17, and the nurse told me to draw an X on the knee. I'm like cause at that point I had been coming to the doctor for a couple months and I'm like, don't yall have this in my records?

But apparently doctors can and do forget and operate on the wrong body parts. Due to negligence, not bad intent.

What was the 8 hr surgery for?

 

[Yinny]

Yes.

 

[Jaylen Tatum]

Yes

?

I feel like they do. If the family says to operate and the doctor doesn't think it's a good idea they just let them die in surgery to not have to deal with the patient anymore

Look up the term slow coded.
I'm not in the medical field so I don't know if it's true. But they say when a blue code is called for a emergency the doctor will take their time to get to the patient or give instructions very slowly, essentially letting the patient die.

I think they do this to patients who they believe have no chance of recovery

 

[Darealtwo1]

The only time is they really do this is if them living isn"t going to be a good life.

 

[DropTopDoc]

iatrogenic deaths, are 250,000 deaths per year, those are mistakes or other errors

 

[MoveForward]

I think they let people die sometimes in conjunction with the police.

 

[Coolin']

yup

Jesus Christ some of y'all really live that paranoid life... There are procedures and ethics boards out the ass. Usually a lot of different eyes on a patient at any time. Also some patients sign a DNR, so if they flatline the doctors don't try to bring them back because that's their wish. I'm sure there are some psycho's out there, for sure, but thats anyone in society at any time. They just chose to be a doctor.

not true, the nurse doing it was a murderer
