Background
In September 2022, Julie Christina Wigzell died aged 43 following routine gallbladder surgery. After surgery she showed signs of serious deterioration, including vomiting, blood in urine, abdominal distension, reduced mobility and not passing stool. Her wife believes a review of current post-operative monitoring and escalation procedures, including checks for bowel function and deterioration, could help identify gaps in patient safety and prevent avoidable deaths after surgery. We want the changes that come out of this review to be called Julie’s Law.
