10-Year-Old Boy with Spinal Injury
On arrival at Holyoke Hospital, Jimmy Chin, a 10–year-old boy, is immobilized on a rigid stretcher so that he is unable to move his head or trunk. The paramedics report that he was awake and alert after his accident at the skateboard park, but crying and complaining that he couldn't get up and that he had a “wicked headache." He has severe bruises on his upper back and head, and lacerations of his back and scalp. His blood pressure is low, body temperature is below normal, lower limbs are paralyzed, and he is insensitive to painful stimuli below the nipples. Although still alert on arrival, Jimmy soon begins to drift in and out of unconsciousness.
Jimmy is immediately scheduled for a CT scan, and an operating room is reserved.
Relative to Jimmy's condition:
1. Why were his head and torso immobilized for transport to the hospital?

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?
