The investigation into the death of a 64-year-old woman at Can Misses Hospital in Ibiza remains open, with the circumstances surrounding her death still not publicly established.

The woman died on the morning of Saturday, September 19, while she was admitted to the Internal Medicine Hospitalisation Unit at Can Misses.

Patient was under restraint measures

According to the Ibiza and Formentera Health Area, the patient had previously experienced an episode of marked agitation that posed a risk to her own safety.

Healthcare staff subsequently applied mechanical and pharmacological restraint measures in accordance with the clinical indications established for situations of this type.

During one of the patient's scheduled control visits, at approximately 11:00, medical staff found her without signs of life in her hospital room.

Police launched an investigation

Emergency protocols were activated immediately and the security services were notified.

The Judicial Police and Scientific Police attended Can Misses and took charge of the investigation into the circumstances of the death.

The Health Area said it had made all relevant information and material available to investigators, including security-camera footage from the hospital.

Cause of death remains unconfirmed

The investigation has continued since the woman's death, but no official explanation for the cause of death has been made public.

Police have maintained discretion over the case while the relevant investigative and judicial proceedings remain open. Reports published in the days following the death indicated that investigators had not publicly confirmed a specific line of inquiry.

This means that the circumstances surrounding the woman's death should not be presented as established, and there is currently no confirmed finding publicly linking her death to the restraint measures that had been applied.

Health authorities call for caution

The Ibiza and Formentera Health Area has expressed its condolences to the woman's relatives and said it is cooperating fully with the authorities.

The health service has also called for prudence and respect for the family while the investigation continues.

Investigation remains ongoing

For now, the key facts remain that the woman was an admitted patient at Can Misses, had previously required mechanical and pharmacological restraint following an episode of severe agitation, and was later found dead during a routine control visit.

The police and judicial investigation remains ongoing, and further information will depend on the findings of the authorities.
