I remember while as a house officer almost a decade ago, I did 48hrs on-call in Paediatric surgery. Never looked forward to those on-call days cos they were brutal. Nearly half the on-call would be in theatre, on your feet or chasing results and blood transfusion. Registrars then were on 72hr on-call. Now as a consultant in Uk, I work 3 days a week. He may not have been on call for 72hrs but hospitals need to look after the welfare of their employees. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Fake news in Nigeria is becoming an epidemic. If not, why would anybody believe someone worked non stop for 72 hours? How is that even close to being possible? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Snipespeter: Ipobic pig, why are you always bitter about Nigeria. Do you know more than his family, LUTH management, the association the House Officers belonged? Anyone can die anywhere in the world, including your saner climes. Obidiotic, Zombidiotic, Obifoolish pig of Beerfraud Republic, so nobody died in Anambra when your repackaged messiah, General Gbajue, was Governor. |

My wife is a nurse in LUTH. I wonder if I am not a good cook! My wife will not be at home for 2 days sometimes 3 days. Because it is stressful to come home and still have to go again hours later. They add call plus morning duty together for just one person. The federal government is to blame. They are not employing enough staff because they are afraid of how to pay them. The Government must work on how to boost the economy and create wealth so that they can pay the citizens they employ and employ more. I laugh when people say Nigeria is rich; Nigeria is rich and we are borrowing from other countries. I understand Economics very well so I can vividly say that Nigeria is far from being rich! 4 Likes |

I know there won't be any official roll call that would have shown any house office will be on call for 48hrs... But in practical terms, from testimonies of Drs here on Nairaland, these Drs are made to work for Hours..calls back to back non-stop.. It's time for Drs pressure group to stand against this slavery...if any hospital management, departments or units are confident and are certain that they are doing the right thing by making Drs work extra hours...such roll call, time-table should be on black and white. Let them type and print it. If not, Drs should not do beyond anything that is not officially written in black and white. 4 Likes |

I have a theory. It's possible the hospital is responsible for overworking the doctor and leading to his death, but because the hospital has a reputation to protect, they came up with a made up story since the doctor wouldn't be there to tell his side of the story. They then tampered with the paper work to make it seem like he has been off duty days to his death. The family could be vulnerable and it's also possible that they only relied on the doctor for financial support and therefore, the hospital can easily threatened them into keeping shut because they have no means to fight off the hospital management through the courts. In the end, the family would have no choice but to corroborate the hospital's story. IconicR: 2 Likes |

People are quick to apportion blame for cause of death.Everything in life is a choice plus we don't bother to do autopsy on the death to a certain the cause.Doctors,nurses work over time,though his death is sad,I don'tf think doctors are forced to work over time. . |

I know these idiots(consultants, SRs and Regs) who overused this boy will quickly look for a way to cover up there misdeeds. Even if they escape human/life they will never escape God. They worked the young chap to death. For those wondering if it's possible to have 72hrs call, yes, very possible in a drs life. People in the system already know. Ofcourse it will not be documented as 72hrs, but you can be tied down clearing emergency cases admitted in your call, especially in surgery department,where they have to operate, for the next 72hrs. 1 Like |

tremilatre: I just graduated from medical school, I'm currently awaiting my HJ posting. I've read a whole lot about HJ and the stressful work conditions; I wonder why nothing substantial has been done to improve the condition of Nigerian intern doctors, especially those in teaching hospitals. If one isn't careful, rather than learning case management, one may spend an entire year running errands, chasing samples and results, and doing every other stuff but learning the rudiments of the practice. |

What is the normal amount of hours a doctor is supposed to work? I have personally seen doctors around for 24hours during my stay in govt hospital when having my babies and I wonder how they do it. A doctor attended to me early on a Tuesday morning checked and I wasn't dilated but because I was almost 41 weeks I was admitted immediately now later that night, it was the same doctor that inserted catheter, now that same doctor likely worked overnight. There are other doctors around too, but I picked that face coz he was the one that attended to me. All these time attending to other women walking up and down etc etc It was another doctor that attended to me when I had my baby by Wednesday morning. I kept wondering if doctors work 24hours straight since that time. Most time it's the same set of doctors you see around for 24 hours or more, how on earth won't there be mistakes, someone on the feet for 24 hours, abeg oo. Doctors in govt hospital make una answer oo, I think 24hours is too much, I thought it was morning and night 12 hour shift. |

Ademola47: I promise you, It probably isn't. I have personally seen a surgeon in UBTH do 3 days, this one is not who told me, I was standing in a hall way, I had someone in false Labour there for a whole weekend, this guy was just walking up and down, up and down almost nonstop!! Wheeling expectant mothers in and out of surgery! Eventually he handle our delivery, though it was vaginal birth but with a small incision: because of fatigue, Baba no reason local anaesthetic, dem dey cut woman body she felt the pain. To stitch it back, the stitching was done with no local anaesthetic , Eventually granuloma ( a situation where inner tissue grows outside of a stitch and refuses to heal) happened. We had to go back, re-tear and re-stitch the cut after 3 months without healing after delivery! I didn't even bother because I knew the person work schedule and condition of the surgeon! Those guys eh! Na that day I understand why some of them dey talk like who dey kolo sometimes when dealing with patients, they can snap at any time, they are overlaboured!! This one is not about money abeg |

thesicilian: He said most likely... meaning he is not sure ... not a firm conclusion. I agree with him because the COVID-19 shots have been causing sudden deaths and blood issues. You may know people who had no history of medical issues before taking the shot but have serious issues after. When someone dies suddenly ... no prior issues ... find out if the person had the shot ... you will come to your own conclusion. @ topic .... unless on drugs ... the body will shut down within 72 hours ... regardless if you want to stay awake. I'm just amazed at how gullible sooo many of us are to believe that this man ... a doctor ... can not only be awake for 72 hours ... but be mentally and physically alert to perform his duties. The focus should be who pushed the news? I don't blame the people that make up and peddle lies ... I blame the ones who do nothing to hold them responsible. His family should be tracking down the source and have them in court sued for slander instead of countering on SM. |
