Estate of L. v. Regional Hospital

Client was experiencing swelling in his throat after surgery and emergency help was summoned. Unfortunately the hospital paging system had quit working and nobody noticed. The nurses finally called the emergency room on the telephone and the physician rushed to the patient’s room only to discover that the tracheotomy kit was missing a scalpel. The physician used a pocketknife to attempt a tracheotomy but by the time an airway was established the patient had suffered severe brain damage and ultimately died.
