UDON THANI: -- An Austrian man's Thai wife found...

Post by DuiDui49 » February 17, 2017, 8:13 am

"UDON THANI: -- An Austrian man's Thai wife who had arranged to go with him on a visa run turned up at his place and found him dead from an apparent heart attack.

Usa, 38, and her husband had been married for five years but lived in separate places in Udon. She had seen him on Wednesday evening but then went home to her mum and dad, reported Thairath.

The couple had arranged to meet Thursday to go to Laos to extend the husband's visa.

Usa found Roman Kothgabner, 54, dead in his room. Police and medics called to the address said that there was no sign of a struggle and nothing had been taken.

The deceased was found dressed only in shorts and was half on his bed half off. There was fluid coming from his mouth and nostrils and he was thought to have been dead about nine hours.

A large quantity of Thai herbal medications was found on a table in the room.

His wife said that she was not aware that he had any serious illnesses. If he was ever sick he would take herbal remedies. She
added that her husband had been in Thailand ten years.

Medics think that he suffered a heart attack the previous evening but the body was taken for autopsy to confirm matters.

Fluid from mouth and nose indicates Pulmonary Odeama or heart faliure. Failing heart cant pump out much bllod and backflows to the pulmonary tree and smothers the aveoli and effectively drowns you. Unless you sitting upright and have nitrate medications. Terrible way to go.

What causes the PO could be identified at autopsy.

Massive Infarction. Cardiac Arrthymia. Drug Overdose. Gassing with Chlorine etc

Maybe more appropriate to wait for the autopsi, than displaying some fragmentary, rudimentary medical knowledge and disrespecting the deseased and his family who might be reading this forum.

Boes

Having treated 100s and seeing many deceased patients with Acute Pulmonary Odeama. I would consider my comments as being in line with qualified medical knowledge in the Pre Hospital Care field.
