$2,100,000 Recovery in Failed Cardiac Resuscitation Case

Case Summary:

Our client suffered a severe brain injury when her heart stopped due to a drug overdose. The defendant hospital failed to implant a pacemaker in a timely manner.

The hospital medical providers failed to place a pacemaker on the client until 30 minutes into the code blue. Only when the pacemaker was finally implanted did our client’s heart start beating again but by this time, she had suffered irreparable brain injury.

Outcome:

Our Philadelphia medical malpractice lawyers achieved a $2,100,000 settlement in this hotly contested medical malpractice case.
