Killian Burnett died in 2022.
Children’s Health Ireland has issued a “sincere apology” for shortcomings in the care of a Dublin teenager with severe and poorly controlled asthma who died following a severe attack while waiting over four years to see a specialist consultant.
Killian Burnett (15), from Finglas, who passed away at Connolly Hospital Blanchardstown in Dublin on March 22, 2022, had four cancelled appointments between his first referral to see a consultant in respiratory medicine in December 2017 and his death.
