Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Spinal Surgery Issues at Children's University Hospital Temple Street: Children's Health Ireland

Dr. Ike Okafor:

It has been ten days, yes. The first thing we had to do was the follow-up clinic for the 16 families who could make it to the follow-up clinic. We did that clinic on 23 September. We had to get two orthopaedic surgeons, one plastic surgeon, one neurodisability consultant and four nurses to be in the one space. Those were the children who were part of the review and one of the children who was part of the of the non-CE implant. We finished that clinic on 23 September. We had already started to contact the families that were on the waiting list before the clinic and we completed that yesterday.
