Larnaca, Cyprus. Further tests are to be carried out to determine the cause of death of 42-year-old Georgia Christofi, who died at Larnaca general hospital on Sunday after being found on the floor of a hospital toilet last month.
Autopsy and additional tests
Police said on Tuesday that an autopsy was carried out by state pathologists Angeliki Papetta and Orthodoxos Orthodoxou, and that samples were taken for further tests.
Hospitalisation and medical events
Christofi underwent a hysterectomy at the hospital on January 16 and suffered a serious brain haemorrhage the following day. She was later found unclothed and wet, face down on the floor of a toilet at the hospital.
She fell into a permanent coma and was intubated in the hospital’s intensive care unit.
Family complaint to Okypy
Her family had previously complained to the state health services organisation (Okypy) about her treatment, accusing the hospital of negligence. They said Christofi had repeatedly contacted relatives and said she had made repeated requests for assistance to go to the toilet, but that those requests went unanswered.
What do you think should be examined in the further tests to clarify the cause of death?
