Just read the whole Reg 28 report.
I don't think we need to labour the point but EM experts need to be providing commentary on EM matters for HM Coroner, not tertiary "specialists' who haven't set foot in an ED in decades...
Anyway - a thread on this... @ThinkAorta #AD #EMLife

My heart goes out to this person's family. His death was tragic but not definitely preventable. He is young and does not fit the "usual" age group for AD. He should not have been sent to a UTC with chest pain - our UTC colleagues would not see this presentation... 
Time & again in EM I teach colleagues in training that you should not diagnose "costochondritis" / anxiety related CP etc in an ED - it's a made up diagnosis when you DON'T KNOW. That's why it's in tiny font on the final slide - put that on a chart and it's meeting w/out coffee
