Pregnant woman’s death…PM reveals cause as cardiovascular malfunction
As the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) continues its investigations into the death of 22-year-old Shebeki ‘Tiffany’ Enniss, a post mortem examination has revealed that the woman died as a result of cardiovascular malfunction with pulmonary edema.
The PM was done yesterday by Dr. D. Martinez at GPHC and the report was handed over to the hospital.
Dead: Shebeki ‘Tiffany’ Enniss
A source close to the investigation told this publication that the Ministry of Health has intervened and they will also launch a probe.
Enniss of West Bank Berbice died at the hospital’s Maternity Ward on Friday last, one week after she underwent an abortion and a procedure to prevent pregnancy at GPHC.
Family members of the 22-year-old woman, who had a hole in her heart, blamed the hospital for the woman’s death, saying that the “coil” they inserted in her may have been the reason for her death.
A “coil” is a small plastic device, not much longer than a match, which is placed inside the womb to prevent a woman from getting pregnant.
Kaieteur News understands that doctors at the hospital had advised the woman to abort the child since her health was in jeopardy. “The abortion was done to save her life,” a source said.
Meanwhile, Kaieteur News apologizes to Ms. Donna Lisa Monroe, whose photograph was published in yesterday’s paper as Shebeki Enniss. The mistake was made due to a misunderstanding between the reporter and one of Enniss’ relatives.
