NHS makes near record £19m payout to parents of girl left brain damaged after jaundice treatment went wrong  The NHS has made a near record £19m payout to the parents of girl left brain damaged after jaundice treatment went wrong.

The nine-year-old was born at King's College Hospital with severe jaundice and her lawyers claimed there was a negligent delay in giving her a total blood transfusion.

NHS lawyers accepted that there had been "shortcomings" in her care - and agreed to what is believed to be a near record settlement of her claim. The Daily Telegraph
