The family of a 45-year-old woman who never woke up after a surgery at Cork University Hospital has settled a High Court action over her death for €400,000.

Counsel said an MRI and other tests showed she was brain damaged. He said the issues in the case were complicated and the identification of the causation was not clear cut.Roaring rural TDs came looking for Dáil insults and Simon Harris didn’t let them down She was admitted as a day patient to CUH on February 11th, 2014, for surgery and did not wake up from the anaesthetic. She had a seizure on February 27th, 2014.

The HSE admitted a breach of duty in relation to some elements of the anaesthesia care, including anaesthetic pre-assessment, medical record keeping, blood pressure management, oxygenation and blood glucose management. However, it said these could not with certainty be deemed factors associated with her death.
