Boustead v North West Strategic Health Authority [2008] EWHC B11 (QB) (16 June 2008)

Description

Medical: While the original decision not to perform a caesarean was an approach that would have been taken by a reasonable proportion of obstetricians at the time, the decision not to carry out an emergency caesarian thereafter was a breach of duty. That breach had been a material contribution to the intraventricular haemorrhaging suffered by the Claimant.
