Prestigious international publication for Daisy Hill’s respiratory team | Newry News
Daisy Hill Hospital’s respiratory medical team has published their learning from a rare lung complication in pregnancy in a prestigious international journal.
The team worked with colleagues from interventional radiology, obstetrics and thoracic surgery at the Royal Victoria Hospital, to diagnose and successfully treat their patient.
As this was the first case of its kind to their knowledge, Respiratory Consultant Dr Jason Wieboldt and Specialty Doctors Dr Cormac Murtagh and Dr Andrea Livingstone from Daisy Hill Hospital along with Dr Eamon McCarron, Dr Tom Lynch and Dr Anton Collins from Belfast Trust, developed a case study which was accepted and published by the respected QJM An International Journal of Medicine.
The team were delighted with a very positive outcome for both mother Laura and baby Lorcán and to be able to share their learning with colleagues internationally.
Baby Lorcán is now 10 months old and thriving.
Commenting on their involvement in international medical education, Laura said:
“I would like to express my sincere and heartfelt thanks to Dr Jason and all the staff at Daisy Hill Hospital for the wonderful and professional treatment I received and for his dedication in establishing a multidisciplinary team with his colleagues from the Royal to treat me in a timely fashion, given the circumstances.
“We are privileged to have such a wonderful medical facility and expertise in our midst.
“The end result could have been so different for me and for this, my husband, I and of course baby Lorcán will be eternally grateful.”
Congratulating colleagues on their recent publication, Mary Burke, Chief Operating Officer for Daisy Hill Hospital says, “We have a very dedicated respiratory team at Daisy Hill Hospital, who along with colleagues from across disciplines and professions are always working together to provide high-quality care.
“This case study is a great example of multidisciplinary excellence and working with regional specialists to achieve the best possible outcome for patients.
She adds, “I am delighted that the team and their Belfast Trust colleagues have been given this international recognition and that clinicians globally may benefit from their learning.”
