The coroner at the inquest into the death of Kane Gorny, a patient who died of thirst in while hospital, has recorded a narrative verdict of dehydration by neglect. His parents say they are "devastated by the number of missed opportunities."
A nurse failed to carry out observations on a man who died of dehydration in hospital, an inquest was told yesterday.
Medical staff at St George's Hospital in Tooting, south London, did not give Kane Gorny vital medication to help him retain fluids.
The 22-year-old, who was a keen sportsman, even phoned police from his hospital bed as he was so desperate for a glass of water, the inquest has been told.
Mr Gorny was suffering from diabetes insipidus, a condition which caused him to be aggressive towards nurses on May 27 2009, the day before he died.
