The coroner's concerns
1. antipsychotic-induced arrhythmias
“antipsychotics, including Olanzapine, may cause arrhythmias and that a cardiologist's opinion may be needed from time to time”
2. hyponatraemia from psychogenic polydipsia
“he developed hyponatraemia from excessive drinking but the aetiology was not clear, although he was thought to have psychogenic polydypsia”
3. lack of multidisciplinary physical health oversight
“consultant psychiatrists caring for in-patients with physical health problems did not have the benefit of a fellow consultant physician visiting, examining and advising on management”
