DK Global created a compelling visual presentation that faithfully represented the details of a procedure that caused a female patient to die as a result of internal hemorrhaging, while being prepped for heart surgery.

The animation provided in this case was vital in showing how the physician's improper intubation led to the victim's lung puncture, and ultimately her death. The visual aid gives the viewer an internal view of the injury sustained that would not be easily understood through photos or text.
