Grand Mal Seizure Follows Cervical Myelogram, Anticipated Risk or Nursing Negligence? #nurseup

Grand Mal Seizure Follows Cervical Myelogram, Anticipated Risk or Nursing Negligence?:"Summary: With a proper Informed Consent obtained, it is accepted that a patient is aware of potential risks & complications prior to a procedure. In this case, following a cervical myelogram, a patient developed seizures and suffered an injury. The physician would blame the nursing staff for causing an "increased risk" by not following procedures."
