Saving Lives Need Approval?

Local woman dies after giving birth to twins
A 44-year-old woman has died two hours after giving birth to a pair of twins at Raffles Hospital.
The deceased, Sun Li Juan, was admitted to the hospital last Thursday for bleeding as a result of a low-lying placenta.
In a written response, Raffles Hospital told 938LIVE that Madam Sun continued to bleed while in the ward.
As there was a continuing threat of premature labour and in the interest of the twinsÂ’ safety, a Caesarean section operation was carried out on Saturday.
The hospital added that during surgery, massive bleeding was encountered and emergency blood transfusion was immediately started.
Relatives of Madam Sun were also requested to assist in replenishing the blood supply stocks, a customary procedure according to the hospital.
Madam Sun eventually died after she developed an acute blood coagulation problem arising from massive bleeding and transfusion.
But in comments made to MediaCorp News, Madam SunÂ’s family had reportedly queried if the hospital had enough blood supply.
Her husband was quoted as saying that the hospital told him it would need to seek approval from higher management if more blood was needed.
He then questioned if the saving of lives actually needed approval.
Some 200 relatives and friends had been mobilized by the family to donate their blood to Madam Sun.

it's a shame that she died but giving birth to children at 44 yrs old is risky, isn't it?

Sometimes in this kind of complication, all the blood in the world also cannot save. -

But I read from somewhere it says weakening of heart and lung. "Xin Fei Suai Jie".
So is which real reason? Lack of blood in the bank, or Cardio-repespirtory failure?

not really probably issue of whether its justified to use more blood. using more blood here on a cause that is likely to fail, might cause some one else coming in an hour to die cause of lack of blood.Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:They must have forgotten the content of the oath that they've taken. -

Coagulation of the blood already says a lot... it's not the lack of blood, but other issues.Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:HmM~
