The insured was faced with the challenge of managing sudden, overwhelming autonomic storms in which vitals and metabolism went completely out of control. | |||||
Operation, Diagnostic, Or Treatment Procedure Rendered Causing The Injury | |||||
The insured was responsible for round-the-clock intensive management of a critically ill child in Pediatric ICU who required multiple, complex treatment modalities. | |||||

Principal Injury Giving Rise To The Claim | |||||
Long term steroid therapy caused the child¿s brittle bones. The parents suspected that a small bone fracture was caused by abusive treatment by the healthcare team including the insured. They reported the matter to local law enforcement authorities who found no cause for action. The insured faced an ethical problem of physician-patient relationship and worked with the hospital to retain equally qualified substitute physicians. The child expired week later despite the best of care. The claim alleged abandonment. Seven years of expensive and endless litigation led to a settlement. Insured had superb expert support. | |||||
