A first-time mother who died a week after an emergency Caesarean section died in medical misadventure, an inquest jury has found.

Dhara Kivlehan, 29, and originally from India, died in Belfast’s Royal Victoria Hospital on September 28, 2010, after being airlifted from Sligo hospital where she had given birth a week earlier but suffered a severe strain of pre-eclampsia.

The hearing at Carrick-on- Shannon courthouse heard deficiencies in her care included a 96-hour delay in a kidney specialist assessing her critical condition and a 12-hour gap in the review of the first blood tests.
