The parents of Aishwarya Aswath have described a report into their daughter’s death at Perth Children’s Hospital as “inconsistent” and have renewed calls for a full independent inquiry.
Aishwarya died on Easter Saturday of sepsis from a bacterial infection related to group A streptococcus, despite her parents begging to see a doctor at the hospital’s emergency department for nearly two hours.
The WA Child and Adolescent Health Services (CAHS), which operates Perth Children’s Hospital, spent six weeks conducting a review of the circumstances of Aishwarya’s treatment and death, before providing its report to the family on Wednesday.
