Norris v. East Tennessee Children's Hospital10/31/2005
ing at the time of his visit. There is no such evidence.
IV.
The child's death was a tragedy, but the unfortunate outcome alone is not enough to hold the defendants responsible. The plaintiff must present its case-the standard of care, the deviation, and proximate causation. Here, the lack of expert testimony linking any negligence on the part of the defendants to the child's injury supports the trial court's granting of the defendants' motion for a directed verdict. The prima facie elements of a medical malpractice claim were not established.
V.
The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Costs on appeal are taxed to the appellant, Connie J. Norris. This case is remanded to the trial court for the collection of costs assessed there, pursuant to applicable law.
