What would cause bloating prior to death? I tried to look up this answer on Google but I can’t find an exact answer.
Patient was at home, said didn’t feel well & then a family member told me that the pt.’s abdominal area was swollen. I don’t know what made the abdominal area swollen. Was it gas? Was it liquid? What would cause the pt. to fall down so suddenly & die? The pt. had been to the doctor prior for illness & they gave her antibiotics.
I am just at a loss because it happened so suddenly & unexpectedly.
