Publisher Description
Plaintiff Sondra Applebaum presented to the emergency room of the defendant Mount Sinai Medical Center with complaints of sustained chest pressure radiating to the left arm, associated with shortness of breath worsening for a few days (discharge summary, Ex J to motion). She was admitted to the hospital and she underwent a left heart catherization on December 10, 1999, utilizing a right femoral artery approach. She was awake during the procedure. Defendant Dr. Sharma was the attending during the procedure and defendant Nurse Practitioner Mary Duffy was the assistant. The procedure was performed in the premises of defendant Mount Sinai Hospital. The angiogram revealed non-obstructive coronary artery disease and a normal left ventricle, so no intervention was performed.
