Significant six-figure recovery

A retired man from State College was in the recovery room after undergoing elective surgery. A leak developed in his endotracheal tube, but the nurses were not monitoring the patient closely enough, and they failed to discover the leak. Eventually, the leaking of the air caused a tension in pneumothorax, which resulted in the man’s lungs no longer working, and he died. A significant six-figure recoverywas obtained for the widow of this man as a result of our medical malpractice and wrongful death claim.
