4475 REVIEW DENIED Based on expert testifimony that providing information about medical tests and results is solely the responsibility of physicians, a trier of fact is justified in concluding that a lay health care worker's failure to inform a patient about the results of such tests is not negligence; expert testimony that by the time fetal abnormalities could be detected abortion was not an appropriate medical procedure justified the finding that failure to inform parents of the fetal abnormalities does not result in liability for wrongful life.CitationERMOIAN v DESERT HOSPITAL (Wrongful Life) 152 CA4 475 [See: Curlender v Bio-Science 106 CA3 811; Turpin v Sortini 31 C3 220; Gami v Mullikin 18 CA4 870, T/AT 11/93]
