David Nash inquest. Student likely to have lived if seen face-to-face
A law student who died after four remote GP appointments was likely to have lived if he had been seen face-to-face, a coroner has ruled.
Mr Nash, 26, spoke to a GP practice in Leeds four times over a 19-day period, but was not seen in-person. She said the failure to arrange an in-person examination when he complained to an advanced nurse practitioner of fever, neck stiffness and night-time headaches in the days before his death was a "missed opportunity".
"Had he been directed to seek face-to-face or urgent care by the GP practice it is more likely than not that he would have undergone neurosurgery approximately 10 hours earlier than he actually did which, at that time, it is more likely than not would have been successful.
