Inquest Reveals Missed Opportunities in Four-Year-Old's Sepsis Death

Medical staff failed to recognize severity of illness during multiple hospital visits, coroner finds

Daniel Klosi, 4, was taken to the Royal Free Hospital four times in a week before dying from sepsis.
Coroner Mary Hassell identified a missed chance to administer life-saving antibiotics on the third visit.
Medical staff, including a trainee GP and consultant paediatricians, admitted to not recognizing the severity of Daniel's condition.
Changes have been implemented at the hospital to improve handling of similar cases in the future.
Daniel's parents described him as a lively boy with no health issues other than autism.
