A mum bled to death in hospital after a “systems failure” in her care, an inquest heard yesterday.
Susan Doherty, 47, died eight days after being rushed to hospital with a sore throat, high temperature and low level of white blood cells.
Doctors had requested an “urgent” scan after she complained of severe chest pain, but it was not followed up and she died after suffering a massive bleed to her spleen, an inquest heard.
