Swab left inside Caesarean mother
Quote:
A woman has undergone an operation to remove a swab left inside her during a Caesarean delivery.
Sahar Asma Sarfaraz of Beckenham, south London, gave birth to her first child Sabrina at Princess Royal University Hospital in Orpington on Tuesday.

The 26-year-old complained of a severe pain soon after and three days later an X-ray revealed the hankerchief-like swab, which was removed on Friday.

Heads will roll for this, this is a stupid mistake to make! A thing like that can be avoided if you do a swab count before and after the surgery!!
