Mrs Dijana was admitted to New Victoria Hospital on 15 July 2018 with the complainants of right knee pain and inability to bear weight owing to a fall.During hospitalization, two incisions were made for compartment syndrome .Post operatively, a vac therapy has been commenced and assessed for drainage as well as signs of infection. She was treated with pain medications. Currently, she has made good progress without any complications.

Mrs Dijana is married and has two children. She works as a teacher and drinks socially.In terms of her medical history, she has seizures
