Bryanna,
As per her father's account, when anasesthesia was given ,she first behaved unusually for a min and went into sleep. The dentist continued to drill the tooth in that state. Her father was beside the chair. He asked the dentist why is she not waking. The dentist said it is normal . After sometime ,the girl opened her eyes suddenly. She seemed to be in a state of shock and confused. Her eyes were dilated. She quickly closed her eyes ,never to open them again. When her father asked, the dentist continued to say in a very callous attitude 'All this is normal.She will wake up. Please take her home
or if you are in doubt to a paediatrician'.
Her father further added that the dentist did not even budge from his chair. He personally took her to the paediatrician who was luckily available next door. The paediatrician tried to resuscitate her but to no effect.
It is not just what has gone wrong that matters. The father said the dentist behaved as if nothing unusual happened. The attitude of the dentist was as if he was not involved in it.
The dentists in India do not have any ICU like set up or any resuscitation apparatus with them. They only have dental drugs with them.
My question is -
Do the dentists in USA have an emergency bed, oxygen support,ventilator,resuscitation apparatus etc (ICU like set up) in their clinic in case such an incident occurs ?
