*This is a stories about the Hospital make to a death of pregnant woman and her unborn baby when deliver the baby*

A 40-year-old businessman in Seremban has alleged that his wife and unborn baby died because a doctor and nurse at a private hospital were negligent.



Khairul Anwar Abdul Halim said the incompetence of the duo had caused the deaths of his 40-year-old wife Norliza Shariff and the baby.

The father of four other children claimed that he took his wife to the hospital at 8.30am on Dec 6 after she showed signs of going into labour.


"As soon as my wife was wheeled in, I asked the doctor to perform a Caesarian section due to her age. The doctor refused," he told reporters at his home in Kg Sungai Landak in Ampangan.


Khairul Anwar said he made a similar request at noon but was again told that surgery was unnecessary.


"At 3pm, a nurse attending to my wife asked her to put on an oxygen mask to reduce labour pains. I told the nurse that this was not advisable as my wife only had her lunch at 1.45pm," he said. The nurse went ahead anyway and Norliza had to put on the mask until 5pm.


Khairul Anwar claimed that his wife was ready to give birth at 4.30pm but even then the nurse did not notify the doctor. "All of a sudden my wife vomited and became semi-conscious. Even the doctor who had just come into the room panicked when he saw this," he claimed.


Khairul Anwar said he again asked the doctor to perform surgery on Norliza but his wife was only wheeled into the operation theatre some 30 minutes later. "At 7.30pm, I was told that both my wife and baby had died at 6.35pm. Both would have been alive today if the doctor had performed surgery on my wife in the morning," he said.
