Dansker & Aspromonte Associates represented a four-year-old boy who went into a major New York City hospital for repair of a droopy eye lid. The hospital’s anesthesia department was contracted out to a private corporation that assigned an uncertified nurse anesthetist to administer anesthesia rather than an anesthesiologist M.D.

Sadly, the child was immediately overdosed on the Halothane gas used in the general anesthesia and stopped breathing as the result of nurse’s negligence, but the malpractice did not end there. The hospital did not have a crash cart ready, nor was a doctor readily available to administer CPR. The child went without oxygen for a full 15 minutes before he was rushed to another hospital ER. He was left severely mentally impaired as a result. The parents approached the New York accident law firm Dansker & Aspromonte Associates for justice. The firm collected $6,500,000 on behalf of the four-year-old boy.
