The man said he'd recently traveled from West Africa, was in severe pain
rating it an eight on a scale of 10 and had a fever that spiked to 103
degrees, enough to be flagged with an exclamation point in the hospital's
record-keeping system.
.
Thomas Eric Duncan, displaying symptoms that could indicate Ebola,
underwent a battery of tests during his initial visit to the Dallas
emergency room before eventually being sent home with a prescription for
antibiotics, his medical records show.
.
The Liberian man would become the only person to die from the disease in
the U.S.
.
Duncan's family provided his medical records to The Associated Press more
than 1,400 pages in all. They chronicle his time in the ER, his urgent
return to the hospital two days later and his steep decline as his organs
began to fail.
.
In a statement issued Friday, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital said it
had made procedural changes and continues to "review and evaluate" the
decisions surrounding Duncan's care.
.
Duncan carried the deadly virus with him from his home in Liberia, though
he showed no symptoms when he left for the United States. He arrived in
Dallas on Sept. 20 and fell ill several days later.
.
When he first showed up at the hospital, the man reported severe pain.
Doctors gave him CT scans to rule out appendicitis, stroke and numerous
other serious ailments. Ultimately, he was prescribed antibiotics and told
to take Tylenol, then returned to the apartment where he was staying with
a Dallas woman and three other people.
.
"I have given patient instructions regarding their diagnosis, expectations
for the next couple of days, and specific return precautions," an
emergency room physician wrote. "The condition of the patient at this time
is stable."
.
After Duncan's condition worsened, someone in the apartment called 911,
and paramedics took him back to the hospital on Sept. 28. That's when he
was admitted and swiftly put in isolation.
