Abstract:
:In conclusion, providing anesthesia for a small child undergoing craniofacial reconstructive surgery is an enormous challenge. Even with the most experienced pediatric anesthesiologist and pediatric surgeons, problems can develop suddenly and lead, as they did in this case, to serious morbidity and even death. It is difficult to determine whether the anesthesiologists' "success" in this case in warding off a malpractice verdict was due to their lawyer's ability to convince the court they delivered a level of "care ordinarily supplied by physicians in their specialty," or, rather, due to the fact that defense experts were more convincing than those of the plaintiffs. Regardless, I do not think there were any "winners" in this situation.
