An inquest finds failings in the care of Rachael Chloe Walker, who died after giving birth.
By Liam Barnes and Carolyn MosesA woman who died shortly after giving birth could have survived had a hospital trust not "missed opportunities", an inquest found.
In the 34th week of her pregnancy a consultant obstetrician said her case should be reviewed in three weeks, with a Caesarean section booked in for week 38. At about 02:40 BST on 19 June, Ms Walker collapsed at her home, and an ambulance was called as she was heavily bleeding. "The trust accepted these were missed opportunities to avoid [Ms Walker's] death and had they not been missed it is likely that [she] would not have died because delivery would have occurred well before 19 June, or, if antepartum haemorrhage had occurred during admission, it would have been successfully managed," he said.
"Future lives may be at risk because I'm not satisfied that the trust is adopting sufficient robust processes," he said.
