Description

HELD. - Where a plaintiff receives an injury to a healthy part of the body not involved in the operation in an operating room controlled by known defendants, res ipsa loquitur establishes a rebuttable inference of negligence and causation that puts the burden of going forward with the evidence upon those persons who were awake, aware, and conscious at the time of the injury, who were responsible for the plaintiffs safety at a time when he or she was not in a position to assume that responsibility. Res ipsa loquitur could be invoked against all of the multiple defendants.
