A man with Down syndrome died in hospital after going for 10 days without food, an inquest has heard. Giuseppe Ulleri, also known as Joe, died after confusion over his feeding tube left him starving for 10 days at Manchester Royal Infirmary three years ago.
在一项审讯中，人们得知了一项事实，一名患有唐氏综合症的男子在没有获得食物的情况下，在入院后10天死亡。Giuseppe Ulleri，也被称为Joe，三年前因为在曼彻斯特皇家医院治疗时，喂食管出现问题10天后死亡。
starving：挨饿

Ulleri's family told the inquest that they believe he went for 10 days without being fed whilst in the care of the hospital, and said they raised concerns about a lack of nutrition days before.
Ulleri的家人在审讯中称，他们认为他在医院护理过程中连续10天没有获得食物，并表示他们在他去世前一天担心他缺乏营养。
nutrition：营养

The family said he was denied food due to miscommunication between staff, confirming Ulleri had difficulty talking and couldn't take care of himself.
这家人表示，因为员工之间沟通不畅导致他失去了食物，并证实Ulleri说话有困难且无法照顾自己。
miscommunication：沟通不畅

A jury at court was told Ulleri was initially found in a pool of blood on the floor of his bedroom on February 26, 2016, after suffering a fall. He was taken to hospital and had an x-ray but doctors found no fractures and sent him home.
法庭上的陪审团得知Ulleri最初是在2016年2月26日在他家卧室地板上被发现。他被送往医院病接受了x光检查，但医生没有发现骨折并将他送回家。
fractures：骨折

However, the next day his condition worsened and was taken back to hospital, where he had developed difficulty swallowing. It was soon found he had suffered a broken wrist and hip.
然而，第二天他的病情恶化并被送回医院，在那里他出现了吞咽困难。并很快被发现手腕和臀部都受了伤。
swallow：吞咽

On March 9, a nasogastric tube was inserted but it only stayed in place for a day as Ulleri struggled to use it and felt uncomfortable. Coroner Davies said: "Joe had long periods of time when he had no nutritional support when he stayed in hospital, and for a long period the only nutrition he had was that 24 hours when the tube was in place.”
3月9日，插入了鼻饲管，但由于Ulleri使用起来非常困难且感到难受，因此它只在鼻子中停留了一天。验尸官Davies说：“Joe长期住院时没有营养支持，长期以来他唯一的营养源就是24小时插着的管子。”
uncomfortable：不舒服

The inquest is expected to last until the end of this week.
审讯将持续至本周末。
