Woman is Awarded $17 Million in New York Medical Malpractice Lawsuit

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

A New York hospital was ordered to pay a woman more than $17 million in a medical malpractice lawsuit on May 27, 2008. The woman claimed that in 2003 while she delivered a healthy baby girl, there was damage to her organs which ultimately resulted in the removal of a transplanted pancreas she had received in 1995 to help treat diabetes.


 
Her attorneys claimed that during the Caesarean delivery, due to poor planning, the medical staff cut the connection between her pancreas and bladder. This caused the pancreatic fluid and urine to leak into her abdominal cavity. This fluid, being very acidic, burned her organs, ate through her abdominal wall, and lastly required the removal of her pancreas.

Commonwealth Court Panel Declares Midwife can Deliver Babies in Pennsylvania

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

A Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine cease-and-desist order was overturned on May 23rd by a Commonwealth Court panel. The panel concluded that the unlicensed midwife who had been charged with practicing medicine without a license can continue to deliver babies.

In the state of Pennsylvania, in order for a midwife to deliver a baby without the supervision of a doctor, the midwife must also have a nursing degree. This law is set in place in order to protect women by making sure that midwives are licensed and knowledgeable to prevent potential birth injuries.

Twenty-two other states have similar laws.

In a 5-2 decision, the Commonwealth Court concluded that the Board of Medicine incorrectly concluded that the woman was practicing medicine. The state has not decided if it will appeal the decision. The woman cannot return to work until the potential appeal process is over.
