Introduction: The normal cells in the body have a limited life span, and after the death, these cells need to be removed from the body for allowing the new cells to take their place and develop. Then the human body has two different methods for removing the dead cells, namely apoptosis and necrosis.

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?
