Sounds like negligence on the MRI place, but common sense also isn't so common.... it is a giant magnet. The MRI technician should have never let him in the room.
If the wife knew he had this giant chain on, why did she call him to help? They both seem ignorant of the danger.
I have metal rods implanted and I still can have an MRI. I simply don’t get this story
its crazy how some people try their best to blame the deceased victim. 🤔RIP 💔🕊 🙏🏽
why the hell was the magnet still on while the patient is getting up!?
Listening is fundamental the tech went and got him and he probably didn’t know that the mri was a magnet. The tech shouldn’t have gotten him they should’ve helped her up themselves when I got mine in Charlotte I asked for my husband and they said no we will assist so you won’t fall.
There are multiple zones near an MRI. You have to be extensively screened before any procedure because the magnet is so powerful. The tech never should’ve let him into the room. Much less with a 20 pound chain with a padlock around his neck. These techs are paid handsomely, in part because of the (potential) risk. Safety is absolutely paramount. Wearing that much metal in proximity was an unnecessary risk.
Why did he go in the room? Maybe if she had kept her mouth shut he would have stayed in the waiting room.
So, after seeing the video footage. It appears that the tech led the man into the room and assisted him in picking his wife up out of the bed. It was during this motion that the man was drawn into the MRI machine. The technician had more than enough opportunity to deactivate the machine by hitting the emergency shutdown device. But the technician did not do this. This incident is solely the fault of the technician for allowing him into a controlled environment and neglecting to engage built-in safe devices that could've saved this man's life.
I feel for her...but you all know that it's a big magnet so it's her fault he died. Just a retired ICU NEURO TRAUMA BSN, RN telling it like it is...🙏
so sad 🙏 so sorry
incident was on final destination 6, I think I thought that shit was fake😲
What caused his death? The mri is designed to have people in it. What happened?
The parties knew, the woman stated he wore it before. He should have had common sense to remove all metal. Freak accident. i know when i went for a MRI, I was told about no metal and was also given paperwork stating.
Wears a twenty pound weight training chain around his neck to his wife’s MRI appointment. 😆
Don't they tell you to take off your jewelry before you go in the room 🤔
😒🤔 Deliberately!!!!! Caution at All Times!!!!! Need Police Security at all MRi Machines!!!! Automatic Doors 🚪 Lock any metal Detected!!!!! Tragedy "Doesn't Need to happen again!!!!
How? I am asked several questions before going into a machine for an MRI. This was reckless.
My condolences to this gentlemans wife and family it’s definitely a devastating thing that happen sorry for your lost . I remember I went to take a MRI and they suppose to tell you to empty out your pockets if you have any type of metal to take it off when I went the tech didn’t say none of that to me I did it myself if I didn’t do it I probably been in the same situation the technicians need to wake up stop being lazy and do they jobs it’s not that hard to make sure nothing happens to anyone and if they don’t like they job go get a new one . Cause they have to do is make sure the patients are good the technicians they don’t do a hard job understand if you have to lift a patient or do anything hard they dont . That’s why it sounds suspect to me cause how the hell they didn’t see his big ass chain knowing he can’t wear any type of metal 🤦🏽♂️ this lady better get one those Johnny Cochrans to get those technicians fired and get paid for what they did I know it won’t bring him back
Real gold does not stick to a magnet and that is one of the ways you can tell if it's real or not. but that clasp must have been a master lock🔐
They said this was an open mri I believe. Those machines are built and intended for someone to be in them. That’s what confuses me. Did it suck him in when she was in it as well?? None of this is making any sense. We need someone to do a video and show us exactly how this happened. My head can’t wrap around this story. Prayers for his wife, family, and friends!
sorry for the loss. it's messed up. seems like negligence of the tech not cutting off the machine
Normally the person there helps them off the table. Why did she ask for her husband's help? A member of staff should be the only ones with you it cuts down on freak accidents like this.
He wasn’t sucked in. It’s not a giant vacuum cleaner. It was magnetic energy.
thats crazy. but they tell you not to have any metal on. I can't have an original because of the tattoo ink I have.
Ct scan different mri metal but they will say with both no metal
It was not even an emergency button, making it to shut that damn machine off. I can’t believe there wasn’t a red button cut off all of those machines. I feel so bad for his wife and him losing his life like that, so sad🙏🏼
Letting any person into the room with jewelry or glasses is a big mistake. Computed Axial Tomography (CAT) scans have been around since the 70’s. That center is liable.
🌸
that poor woman to have witnessed such a horrible death of her loved one. my heart breaks for her.
I'm so sorry for your loss 🙏🙏🙏
Horrible!! Poor woman is traumatized for life!
There are normally alarms at the entrance to the MRI area that sound if any metal is detected so that you don't go any further into the room. At least in every facility that my MRIs are done in are set up that way. This was completely avoidable. The technicians always help me up off the table and out of the room to get back to my walker.
He should not have been the person to assist her getting up. Someone needs to be held accountable for the incident. They ask you if you have any jewelry or metal objects on he had no authority to be assisting his wife.
read the Bible was it worth wearing flashy jewelry
There was death, Why is everyone so cruel? Have a passion for the dead and the lady hurting. I've had an MRI and went in with my glasses on. Was helped up by the technicians who give the MRI. 🤔SAD 🙏for the family.
He should have known better than to go for testing wearing a 20 pound chain!!!!
This woman has changed her story, she better keep quiet till the case is over
The technologist was responsible for safety conditions .
Sounds like negligence on everybody’s part
why was he able to walk near an mri machine while wearing that chain?? 100% medical staffs fault. they should not have allowed him back with that around his neck.
they should have made him empty pockets etc 🙏🌸sorry for your loss
I’m so sorry He is in Gods Arms🙏❤️
The technician should have helped her up, but there was no reason for the husband to run in either.
There are a few ‘at faults’ in this situation, as tragic as it is: the MRI clinic staff should not have allowed the husband in the room because THEY should’ve been cognizant of the possible outcomes of that chain in the vicinity of a MAGNETIC imagining machine. And the man should have had common sense NOT to wear a twenty pound chain anywhere out in public outside of a gym (because why?), and especially not in a medical clinic!
This guy wasn't the patient. He should have never been allowed back in the patient area for any reason. It was the responsibility of the MRI techs to assist her off the table and help her to the waiting area. They catastrophically failed to do their job and maintain patient safety protocol, resulting in the death of the patient's spouse. The trauma of that alone is worth upwards of millions in a settlement, but that still won't bring back her husband. 🥺
😪😪😪
he died of over gold!🙏
I’m so sorry for your lost my sister 💕this was preventable. He may have thought they turned the machine off.
there are signs all over the place saying remove all metal objects
Does he wear this 20 lb chain all day, everyday?🤔. Pretty simple remedy to this…nobody but staff and patient goes in. What a terrible way to die.
it's horrible when anyone is killed and and devastating accident and I'm sorry for her loss. but you have gone to understand, it's Common knowledge that you do not wear anything metal around an MRI machine! you just DON'T DO IT..
The 3 of them were stupid and ignorant 🤔
That's what I said & my brother in law showed me that that had happened in The Final Destination Movie They think it's a joke They never said sorry but laughing before he came in people will do anything to others out of hate specially black people & I know the truth The Lord Said you Flock to the Slaughter but he also Said Zechariah 2:8KJV 8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.🙏
