(7) Factors isolated as major causes of preventable death included: failure to prevent hypoxic brain damage by timeous endotracheal intubation and rapid resuscitation; major delays in referral from feeder hospitals; and failure to detect intracerebral haematomas and contusions which subsequently caused raised intracranial pressure.
