The coroner's concerns
1. lack of monitoring protocols for amiodarone patients
“There was no evidence of any protocols in place or guidance for advising primary care providers of the need to closely monitor patients who have been prescribed Amiodarone, particularly in relation to liver function tests, thyroid tests and respiratory difficulties.”
