A GIRL died just hours after going to A&E because doctors allegedly didn’t recognise her symptoms.

Zadie Ajetunmobi, three, was rushed to Broomfield Hospital in Chelmsford, Essex, in November 2022 with a high temperature.

However, the youngster passed away ten hours later following a cardiac arrest.

Her grieving family claim doctors failed to spot that she had sepsis.

Parents Theo and Rhiannon say they were only made aware of this two months later from post-mortem results.

They also allege their daughter’s death could have been prevented if Zadie got the correct treatment at A&E, according to The Daily Mail.

Her father said: “She was a thriving, healthy child.

“There was no mention of sepsis, so afterwards we were left in limbo trying to deduce what happened.”

Today an inquest will explore Zadie’s treatment and the hospital’s sepsis policies.

She was initially diagnosed with tonsillitis by an out-of-hours GP and sent home with antibiotics.

But just three days later Zadie’s mother took her back to A&E with a soaring temperature.

A tribute to Zadie read: “We will never forget our daughter’s beautiful smile and happy nature.

“May she rest in perpetual light as we hold memories of her close to our hearts.”

Diane Sarkar, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust’s chief nursing and quality officer, said: “We took action to ensure better processes were in place.”
