Description
DECISION & ORDER The plaintiff was born in 1964. The gravamen of her medical malpractice action is that during the period
from 1971 through 1975 the defendant improperly selected antibiotics, rather than surgery, to correct her urinary problem,
i.e., vesicoureteral reflux, the backing up of urine from the bladder into the kidneys when voiding. The jury returned a verdict
in favor of the defendant doctor. On the instant appeal, the plaintiff argues, inter alia, that reversible error was committed when the defendant was allowed
to testify that his method of treatment was supported by the findings of an international study group, i.e., the International
Reflux Study Committee, which was formed to study reflux in children. We disagree.
