Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Inspector General Healthcare
Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Inspector General Healthcare Inspection Post-Operative Paralysis Overton Brooks VA Medical Center Shreveport, Louisiana Report No. 10-03462-190 June 8, 2011 VA Office of Inspector General Washington, DC 20420 To Report Suspected Wrongdoing in VA Programs and Operations: Telephone: 1-800-488-8244 E-Mail: [email protected] (Hotline Information: http://www.va.gov/oig/contacts/hotline.asp) Post-Operative Paralysis, Overton Brooks VA Medical Center, Shreveport, Louisiana Executive Summary The VA Office of Inspector General Office of Healthcare Inspections conducted an inspection to determine the validity of an allegation regarding post-operative paralysis at the Overton Brooks VA Medical Center (the medical center), Shreveport, LA. A complainant alleged that a patient could not move his lower extremities after the insertion of an epidural catheter (small hollow tube used to inject anesthetic between the spinal canal and spinal cord). The complainant believed that the catheter caused the patient’s paralysis. We did not substantiate the allegation. However, we found that the patient’s paralysis may have resulted from a prolonged period of hypotension (low blood pressure) in the intensive care unit (ICU). We concluded that the hypotension was poorly monitored and should have been treated more aggressively. During our review, we found that ICU nursing staff did not document required patient assessments. There was no documentation of the mean arterial pressures needed to adjust medications prescribed for low blood pressure, no documentation of the epidural catheter or of neurological assessments, and inconsistent documentation of verbal orders and administered medications. In addition, we found that the medical center’s system of reporting and evaluating adverse events needed improvement. -

Newsletter of the Colorado Council of Professional Archæologists
Newsletter of the Colorado Council of Professional Archæologists October 2010 (FALL) • Volume 32 • Number 3 • www.coloradoarchaeologists.org Quick Updates 2011 CCPA Annual Conference will be held in La Junta, March 24th-27th Hosted by Cuartelejo HP Associates and Avalon Archaeology at the Holiday Inn Express Stay tuned for further details! CCPA is announcing three new committees! Volunteers needed, details inside (pg 12)… CCPA’s email listserver is up and running with over 40 members who have subscribed. Send an email to Greg Williams at [email protected] to be added. Visit Facebook.com and check out the CCPA page, 119 friends and counting! Ward Weakley Scholarship applications are due October 1. Details inside… Back Issues of the newsletter are available on the website at http://www.coloradoarchaeologists.org/BINewsletter.htm President’s Corner Erik Gantt All in all it has been a relatively quiet summer for the CCPA. I think this is largely due to being busy with fieldwork, which is a very good thing. The Executive Committee has been involved in several small issues since the spring including renewing our membership for The Archaeology Channel (see link in this newsletter), distributing some of the remaining Ancient Colorado publications, and setting up the Fall 2010 committee meeting. Probably the biggest news of the summer is that Susan Collins will be retiring from her position as State Archaeologist and deputy SHPO in October. I would like to personally thank Susan for all of her hard work during her tenure. The archaeology of Colorado has been served well by her efforts. -
