Full review ordered by HSE into nine maternity cases

Dr Peter Boylan's chart reviews began after a number of families contacted a helpline set up after an RTE programme on the deaths of a number of babies at Portlaoise hospital.

 

It looked at 28 cases from 1985 to 2013 and found there were possible issues relating to the care of the patients.

 

And it recommended that nine cases be subjected to a full systems analysis review.
