Independent External Medical Audit for Children's Health Ireland and National Orthopaedic Hospital Cappagh: Statements
8:15 am
Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, Solidarity)
What is mentioned here at the moment in the CHI press statement, for example, is that all the operations are being studied from 2010 in Temple Street. We know these novel osteotomies started in 2002. It does not seem to me there is any good reason to leave them out. The argument is they have reached skeletal maturity.
They still deserve to know if they were wrongly operated on. That may have implications for their health into the future.
