Summary Introduction
A cell is a basic structural and functional unit all living organisms. It is considered as the building blocks of life. It consists of two types: prokaryotes (single-celled organisms) and eukaryotes (single or multi-celled organisms). The study of cell and its functions is called as cell biology. The processes such as

A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
Did a patient relationship with the transfusing hospital exist?
