In a trial in which a man in Ishikawa prefecture who had been admitted to a psychiatric hospital was detained in a bed and developed economy class syndrome and died, his parents sought compensation from the hospital. The decisions of the two courts, which dismissed the appeal and ordered compensation, were finalized.

Five years ago, a 40-year-old man who was admitted to a psychiatric hospital in Ishikawa Prefecture died of "economy class syndrome" after being detained in bed for 6 days, and his parents said, "I don't need it. I continued to be illegally detained, "and asked the hospital for compensation.



The Kanazawa District Court of the first trial dismissed the complaint of the parents, saying that "it is not unreasonable for the doctor to judge that there is no means other than detention", but the Kanazawa branch of the Nagoya High Court of the second trial last December "At the time of starting the detention, the man was taking the medicine without going wild and refusing to take the medicine, and he was not in a state where he needed to be detained. The doctor's decision was too early," he acknowledged the responsibility of the hospital. , Ordered compensation of more than 35 million yen.



The hospital had appealed to this, but Yasumasa Nagamine, the judge of the Supreme Court's third small court, decided to dismiss by the 20th, and the parents' reversal victory was confirmed.
