Description

1 In this medical malpractice case, plaintiffs sued Dr. Vicente Gracias and the trauma nurses of the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. According to plaintiffs, a retained laparotomy sponge caused Michael Faherty to suffer a bacterial infection which then led to Mr. Fahertys sepsis, multiple organ failure, and subsequently, his death. A jury, however, found that neither the nurses nor Dr. Gracias was negligent. Mr. Fahertys wife has now appealed and raises (in all) twenty-two claims of error. We do not believe that any of appellants claims have merit and must affirm.
