Description
Burkhart Roentgen, Inc. , appealed from a judgment entered on a jury verdict finding Burkhart 40 percent liable for $163,291.98
in damages awarded to Paul, Lynnette, and Lindsey Witthauer. Burkhart also appealed the denial of its post-trial motions.
We affirm. In March 1986, Lindsey Witthauer, the three and one-half month-old daughter of Paul and Lynnette Witthauer, was hospitalized
at St. Luke's Hospital in Fargo for congestive heart failure and respiratory infection. Dr. Gerald Atwood, a pediatric cardiologist
at Fargo Clinic, recommended that Lindsey undergo a cardiac catheterization procedure in which a small wire is inserted into
a vein in the groin area and passed into the heart to search for defects.
