The incident occurred at Adana City Training and Research Hospital. According to reports, 43-year-old Obstetrician and Gynecologist Dr. Ş.G.A., who was experiencing muscle pain while on duty, requested that healthcare staff provide her with a muscle relaxant.

Ş.G.A. fell ill after the medication was administered.

Her heart stopped, but she was resuscitated following medical intervention.

It is alleged that a medication error may have occurred due to a similarity in names, and she was admitted to the hospital's intensive care unit for treatment.
