The appellants appealed a summary judgment dismissing their medical malpractice claim against the respondent hospital.
The appellants alleged that the hospital's failure to change a post-operative dressing caused a surgical wound infection.
The Court of Appeal found no genuine issue for trial, as the appellants led no evidence to contradict the hospital's expert, who concluded there was no negligence and that re-applying a dressing to a clean, dry wound was appropriate.
The appeal was dismissed.
