unexplained medical problemsBBC
•Girl left near death after being drugged by mother
76% Informative
Girl was left near death after being repeatedly drugged by her mother, a judge has found.
Unnamed mother administered unprescribed medication for more than a year .
The drugs caused the girl to undergo unnecessary medical interventions, including 10 blood transfusions and surgery to stop ulcers bleeding.
She also had to have a gastric tube fitted, lines inserted to allow nutrition, and multiple endoscopies.
Two other women accused of harming their children at Sheffield Children's Hospital were found not to have done so.
Dr Jeff Perring said national guidelines for clinicians had not been followed as it should have been.
This meant when the mothers were referred to social services and the police, the NHS trust had not gathered the evidence it could have done.
At that point, the accepted narrative’ at the Trust was that each mother was guilty of FII (forced or induced illness), he said.
