- Lost Blood Culture Report Allowed Infection to Eat Away Bone: Confidential Settlement – The law firm reached a confidential settlement with a hospital and two doctors. Our client came into the hospital with multiple symptoms and had blood taken for tests, including one for infection. The test results came back on New Year’s Day and were merely put in the fie. The staffing and procedures used over a holiday at the hospital were horribly inadequate and the doctor failed to follow up on the test ordered. The doctors denied they had ever seen it, but the result eventually appeared in the computerized records system.
