A coroner has raised concerns after the death of a man whose brain scan was delayed.

Raymond Leake, 83, fell over on a ward and hit his head at Hull Royal Infirmary in February. A CT scan did not take place until 14 hours later, Hull Coroner's Court heard. It revealed Mr Leake had an unsurvivable catastrophic bleed on his brain, and he died three days later.

Coroner Lorraine Harris said that "had the bleed been identified earlier the outcome would not have changed" as his other medical problems "would have prevented him from [having] surgery", but it would have allowed his family to spend time with him while he was still conscious.

The NHS said it acknowledged the concerns raised in the report.
