Widow of hospital consultant alleges negligence in his care and treatment
The widow of a deceased hospital consultant has sued two Dublin hospitals and a consultant alleging negligence in his care and treatment.
Among various claims, Meraid Hyland-McGuire alleges failure to act appropriately in response to an electrocardiogram (ECG) carried out on her 58-year-old husband Patrick indicating he had had a heart attack. Had there been an appropriate response, he would probably have survived, it is claimed.
