Overview
- The National Police’s UFAM unit filed an expanded report asking the court to examine whether the assigned anesthetist remained present throughout the December 4 surgery.
- Nurse testimony describes three simultaneous operations staffed by only two anesthetists, leaving the surgeon alone with a deeply sedated patient during parts of the procedure.
- Investigators added guidance from the Spanish Society of Anesthesiology that requires continuous anesthetist presence during general anesthesia or deep sedation.
- Judicial sources say the anesthetist has not testified because he was not in the operating room at the time, and the court will decide on his status in the case.
- The surgeon remains in provisional custody and denies the allegations, while nurses and two former patients reported earlier concerns including postoperative vaginal pain.
