They complain that Maradona fell and hit his head a week before his death, but received no medical assistance

The lawyer of a nurse who assisted the Argentine star thinks that the heart of the former footballer was alerting flaws in its functioning, but “no one took heed of the warnings”.

Rodolfo Baqué, the lawyer representing a nurse who was part of the team that assisted Diego Armando Maradona in the moments before his death, dismissed his client from responsibilities and went against the health system developed to take care of the Argentine idol.

So, that lawyer warned of the possible neglect in the treatment of the ‘fluff’, leaning towards the theory of medical negligence: “Maradona fell on Wednesday before he died. He fell and hit his head. They also didn’t take him to the hospital for an MRI or CT scan. Nobody got him anywhere.” , criticized in an interview with TN.

The worker defended by Baqué is at the center of the controversy after writing a report stating that Maradona refused to be searched, around nine in the morning (local time). That document raised doubts because the nurse told the prosecutor that she wrote it and received instructions from a superior.

Thus, it was understood that he wrote that he went to assist Diego, even if this did not happen. “What he said was that he put it on because it was a general rejection from days ago,” his lawyer said.

The woman, who was in the house in the private neighborhood of San Andrés, in the province of Buenos Aires, where Maradona was recovering from a head operation, told investigators that I heard the idol move around 7:30. Forensics estimated that the death occurred around noon.

Meanwhile, the legal expert insisted that the responsibility for the death should rest with the medical staff and not the nurse. “Because of the checks the nurse made during the night shift, Maradona had done it 115 beats per minute heart rate. The day before his death he had 109 beats and we all know that a patient with coronary heart disease cannot exceed 80 beats per minute, “he said.

However, the Prosecutor’s Office reported that the other nurse, who checked on Diego at 6:30 am, “reported finding him resting in his bed, making sure he slept and breathed normally.”

“He wasn’t even assisted with the pills”

“Maradona’s body was warning that there were problems with his heartbeat and he wasn’t even treated with one of those pills coronary patients take to keep the rate at 80,” the lawyer noted. In that tone, he added: “No one took note of the warnings that the heart was giving.”

To conclude, he noted that it lacked a greater active presence of a clinical physician, e he questioned the decision to have him moved from the sanatorium to his home located in the Tigre neighborhood: “Maradona, who could have been treated in the most luxurious and expensive clinic in the world, was in a place where they even had to put a toilet in his room. I think if I hadn’t been there, I’d be alive today“.

In this regard, in the last few hours they broke into the home of Leopoldo Luque, Maradona’s personal doctor, to collect the medical history of the South American star. This professional is also being investigated for the possible lack of medical equipment in the house where the former footballer died. For his part, the doctor denied that he was responsible for the death and voluntarily presented himself to the Prosecutor’s Office.
