THE HIGH COURT approved a settlement of €1.25m today for a man whose wife died while in a maternity hospital nearly ten years ago.
Anne Casey was admitted to Cork University Maternity Hospital in 2012 while she was 37 weeks pregnant due to breathlessness.
She later died after suffering a cardiac arrest.
Lawyers argued in the High Court that she was not properly assessed while in hospital and that her history of cardiac issues was not considered.
