The coroner's concerns
1. bilateral leg swelling
“Bilateral leg swelling overshadowed the consideration for a DVT”
2. VTE risk assessment
“The VTE risk assessment used at the time of Mrs [name redacted] death was not as comprehensive as it could have been”
3. confusing discharge letter
“The discharge letter used when Mrs [name redacted] was transferred from one hospital setting to another (attached) was confusing.”
