Physicians And Surgeons—Malpractice—Court Disregard For The Standard Of The Profession—The Legislative Response—Helling V. Carey, 83 Wn. 2d 514, 519 P.2d 981 (1974); Wash. Rev. Code § 4.24.290 (Supp. 1975), Alan J. Peizer
Washington Law Review
This note will examine the relationship between the standard of care and the role of expert medical testimony in medical malpractice actions, discuss various interpretations of the Helling decision, and suggest the most practical of those interpretations, particularly in light of the subsequent enactment of R.C.W. § 4.24.290.5 The purpose of this statute was to nullify the Helling decision and re-establish the pre-Helling standards of negligence in medical malpractice cases. As will be demonstrated, although the statute in large part succeeds in allaying the fears of medical practitioners and defense attorneys which were induced by Helling v. Carey, the case …

Informed Consent And Medical Experimentation, George H. Martin Jr.
Informed Consent And Medical Experimentation, George H. Martin Jr.
IUSTITIA
Certain biomedical technologies already or almost already with us "threaten to reduce the meaning of man and to degrade the human spirit in the very process of becoming technologically feasible, long before the final stage of deployment and widespread use has been reached." It is this threat that has prompted me to consider certain medical and legal problems associated broadly with the human experimentation process. I shall be examining the concept of "informed consent" to both experimental medical therapy and nontherapeutic scientific experimentation as a means of protecting man from the potential ravages of a zealous application of scientific advances …

The Hospital-Physician Relationship: Hospital Responsibiity For Malpractice Of Physicians, Joel D. Cunningham
The Hospital-Physician Relationship: Hospital Responsibiity For Malpractice Of Physicians, Joel D. Cunningham

The comment assumes the patient has established that the physician committed malpractice; the only issue addressed is whether the patient can recover from the hospital for his or her injuries. The scope is …
