But this patient was imaged showing the hematoma and taken back for embolization BEFORE being transferred to the ICU. Are you really sure she wasn't there for, oh I don't know, a *bleed*?" And as someone pointed out, we're probably not talking about someone who waa given pressors for long enough to effectively rule out quickly most of the differentials that have been given, like infection, MI, PE.
Really sounds like she wasn't properly resuscitated.
I'm willing to bet the Raynaud's was not being treated as an active hospitalization issue, and was effectively forgotten about in the management and she was stuck on pressors for many hours to days essentially by habit, until oopsies her fingers fell off reminding everyone. And I wouldn't be surprised if no one noticed on PE some of the early changes in her fingers.
Things like this get missed all the time. Most of the time it ends up OK, but sometimes it doesn't and when it doesn't, that's real bad.
