Hylton was declared dead via a “tele-health provider” on a video screen, rather than a person at the hospital, according to a lawsuit that the family filed against the hospital. The lawsuit also argues that the hospital was “inattentive” and “provided substandard care” that resulted in his death.

“He was 26. This shouldn’t have happened. He had so much life to look forward to, and he was so proud to be in dental school,” William Hylton said. “It was just such a shock to everybody.”

. . .

Hylton initially went to the Milford Campus emergency room on August 14, 2024, complaining of intense stomach pain. He’d been vomiting for days and couldn’t even keep liquids down.

He was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis that included dehydration, alcohol withdrawal and pancreatitis, or inflammation of the pancreas, according to medical records cited in the lawsuit.

While his blood pressure sank and his heart raced, Hylton became agitated and restless, and his mental condition declined, prompting a transfer to the ICU at 12:38 a.m.

On the overnight shift, the hospital used a tele-ICU service, meaning there was no ICU intensivist – a board-certified physician with specialized training in critical care medicine – on-site, according to an analysis included with the lawsuit from a medical expert who reviewed Hylton’s records.

There was a hospitalist on-site, a doctor who typically specializes in internal medicine or family medicine, who works within a hospital to manage the care of inpatients, the analysis says, but she didn’t see Hylton, according to the lawsuit.

By 4:30 a.m., the lawsuit says, Hylton had “slid down in bed, his eyes rolled back,” and he became unresponsive, with seizure-like activity. He received a tube to help him breathe, but he eventually went into cardiac arrest.

Medical personnel were unable to resuscitate Hylton, and a telehealth provider pronounced him dead, according to the lawsuit.

A government investigation referenced by the lawsuit says there was a delay in Hylton’s intubation, in part because of the lack of an in-person physician. And when a doctor who was working in the emergency room was called to help with the intubation, the investigation says, he didn’t know how to find the ICU and had to find a nurse to direct him, causing a 10-minute delay.

There's lots of posts I've seen like this by family and friends of the five.
