The problem is not the procedure, but the medical staff's inability to manage a crisis. There is a procedure known as a tracheotomy. For some reason the staff did not do their job very well.


my comment was in response to the quote in the OP's article stating

Such a procedure is not supposed to be performed outside of a hospital, according to medical experts.
These "medical experts" that were quoted are incorrect. This procedure is frequently done outside of a hospital.

i'm not commenting as to whether or not this was malpractice. i don't think any of us know enough of the specifics--it's all speculation at this point.
