Description

The question to be decided in this case, which is closely akin to a medical malpractice suit, is whether there is any evidence to support a finding that the negligence of the defendants was a proximate cause of plaintiffs injuries and damage. Plaintiff is Dennis H. Lenger, who underwent surgery in a hospital operated by Physicians General Hospital, Inc. Defendants are Hospital, Mrs. Pauline Jones, who attended plaintiff as a nurse for several days, and Mrs. Berdena Hightower, d/b/a Adamson Nurses Registry, who sent Mrs. Jones to Hospital. Their motion for instructed verdict was granted by the trial court, and the Court of Civil Appeals affirmed. 438 S.W.2d 408. We affirm the judgment of the Court of Civil Appeals.
