The coroner concluded that Arsenal and Everton legend Kevin Campbell D!
Mr Campbell was 54 years old at the Royal Infirmary of Manchester (MRI) on June 15 last year.
Campbell still holds the record, scoring his biggest Premier League goal without winning a full international cover for his country, eliminating over 10 stones in the four months before DE@TH last June 15.
It is said that Mr. Campbell was healthy and was not taken to the hospital until January 2024.
The Manchester coroner’s court heard that when he arrived at the MRI, he weighed from 7 pounds to 15 pounds and 6 pounds.
Upon arrival, he was taken to the intensive care unit, where doctors discovered that his stroke was caused by blood clots on the heart, which could cause kidney failure and liver damage.
Medical staff investigated whether a certain viral infection could cause this, perhaps after a recent holiday in Papua New Guinea, although it turned out not to be the case.
Investigations in tests heard by Manchester showed he suffered from severe heart and kidney failure, but after treatment (including dialysis), he was considered healthy and able to be discharged.
“When Mr. Campbell came in, he was already desperately discomfort,” MRI consultant pathologist Dr. Robert Henney told the investigation.
He added: “Many people will not survive. His physical health has left him sick before he is admitted.”
Mr Campbell’s condition improved after kidney dialysis, and he was discharged from the hospital in early March.
“He told Physiology that he was managing it and taking care of himself in the ward,” Dr. Henny said.
By the time Campbell was re-entered on May 17, he dropped to 9 pounds and 4 pounds – meaning he had lost more than half of his weight in just four months.
Peter Shelby, a consultant physician at the hospital, told the inquiry: “Why was a man whose pictures of a healthy suddenly worsened a few months ago? There should be more curiosity.
His health continued to worsen as further studies and tests in early June confirmed the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis. The medical treatment then continued until he died of multiple organ failure.
Coroner Zak Golombek found that delayed diagnosis of rare heart infections “contributed much to the tragic early demise of the sports star.
Mr Golombek said the former footballer was “very uncomfortable” at that stage, and medical staff believed there was some continuation of heart and kidney failure and showed signs of unknown causes.
The hospital’s internal probe, which received infections caused by bacteria that enter the blood and enter the heart, could be diagnosed earlier, and clinicians should show “more curiosity” about his significant weight loss.
However, the investigation was also told that if Mr Campbell found the infection during his last admission, Mr Campbell was “almost certainly” for a “high risk” happy surgery.
Professor Selby said: “We are not talking about simple surgery. People will conclude that surgery is nothing more than a fatal choice.
The investigation learned that there was no evidence that the infection – said to be difficult to identify – existed during his first hospital stay or in the subsequent outpatient appointment of a cardiologist on April 26.
Mr Golombek said: “While I found that the delay in the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis was delayed to the hospital’s second admission, my findings that the delay did not contribute to Kevin’s death.
Kevin died of a naturally occurring disease, sadly on June 15, it reached its natural end. ”
“Unfortunately, he had two completely separate and irrelevant insults to his heart in a short period of time, so he was desperately unfortunate,” said MRI consultant Dr. Robert Henney.
Harold Campbell told the hearing that his brother was a family of “superstars”.
He said: “Kevin is in the media, especially the fans of the club he plays for, and he is very much loved by everyone.
“From a family perspective, he has been our superstar in football since he was 13 years old.
“Everyone loves him, not only a professional football player, but a normal person. His football career has been successful, but after retirement, I think everyone is more adaptable to his personality – a normal person who is very, very loved.
Mr Campbell scored 59 goals in 224 Arsenal, and along with the 1990/91 league championship, he also won the Highbury FA Cup, League Cup and European Cup Champions League.
He joined Nottingham Forest in 1995, spent three years in Nottingham Forest, and moved to Everton in 1999, staying for a season in Trabzonspor, Turkey.
He stayed in Everton until 2005 when he spent some time under Walter Smith and ended his career in West Brom and Cardiff spells.
