Newborn Sophia died at the Royal Hospital for Children at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Campus, Glasgow, on 11 April 2017.  

The purpose of an FAI includes determining the cause of death, the circumstances in which the death occurred, and to establish what reasonable precautions, if any, could have been taken to avoid deaths in similar circumstances. 

FAIs are inquisitorial in nature and are used to establish facts rather than apportion blame. 

The sheriff considers all the evidence presented in court and thereafter delivers their determination.
