Summary Introduction

To discuss:

Epithelial exfoliation and its clinical relevance.

Introduction:

Epithelial cells are a sheet of adhering cells that cover the body surfaces and cavities in the form of internal and external linings of body organs and tissues of glands. The main functions of the epithelial cells are protection, secretion, absorption, excretion, sensation, and filtration.

Stratified epithelial cells consist of 2 to 20 layers of epithelial lining, which appear in simple, cuboidal, and columnar in shape. It acts as a protective layer because it has more number of layers. It has capabilities to withstand epithelial abrasions. It undergoes self-renewing process, where the epithelial cells constantly fill the cavities of organs.

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?
