This healthy young woman died after taking an everyday contraceptive | UK | News
A young British woman died tragically from a deadly lung clot that was triggered by a contraceptive pill after being misdiagnosed by a virus by a virus.
Chloe Alicia Ellis, a 29 -year -old Dewsbury, has been taking a combined oral contraceptive pill Yasmin to help manage its endometriosis since September 2023. In August 2024, he experienced sudden chest and back pain with shortness of breath, and he contacted NHS 111 online for help, told them that he was on the pill and told them that he was on the pill. Reports Mailonline.
Online evaluation potentially marked a deadly pulmonary embolism and urged it to go directly to A & E. However, vital information from NHS 111 service was never transferred to Medcial personnel at Dewsbury Regional Hospital.
In his investigation, Coroner Oliver Longstaff concluded that hospital doctors could not get a complete medical history and ignore the fact that they use oral contraception. After he was told to have a viral disease, he sent it home.
Just three days later, Chloe collapsed at home and died on September 3, 2024 in Leeds General Infirmary.
Mr. Longstaff said: “When Chloe joined a local hospital emergency room on August 31, 2024, the use of oral contraceptives was obtained, an anticoagulation drug would be given and the lung would receive effective treatment for the lung.
Generally, when a clot that starts from a leg vein is traveling to the lung and blocking the blood flow, the pulmonary embolism becomes. This can be fatal rapidly.
Coroner said Dewsbury Regional Hospital was not established to access NHS 111 online assessments despite the “possible”, and that the sharing of these data could help prevent similar tragedies.
West Yorkshire Integrated Maintenance Board, who supervised the hospital, said: iz We are very sorry to hear what happened to Chloe and go to their loved ones. We are reviewing the points brought up by Coroner and we work with all our relevant partners and we work with the current arrangements to determine the changes in the future. ”
Drugs and Health Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) states that although the combined pill containing estrogen and progestogen insists that “benefits are much more outweighed than the risk of serious side effects ,, it may increase the risk of blood clots.
High estrogen levels increase the number of blood clotting agents and increase the chances of a dangerous clot. If a clot is broken, you can stay in the lungs or travel to the brain and have paralysis.
One -quarter of all women aged 15 to 49 years in the UK is a kind of oral contraceptives, 3 million recipes per year for combined pills and 4 million for only progestogen mini pill. Sexual and Reproductive Health Faculty estimates that approximately 1 percent of women on the pill may be at risk of blood clots.
