WLS AM Radio WLS -AM 890 Page 1 of 2 $17.7M settlement reached for formerShare cop this pagewho | suffered brain injury A $17.7 million settlement was approved last week in a medical negligence lawsuit filed by a former Stone Park police officer — now a quadriplegic — against the University of Illinois Medical Center and a nursing staffing agency. George Nissen, of Melrose Park, suffered a brain herniation when hospital staff failed to properly monitor his intracranial pressure during an external ventricular drain procedure, a release from attorneys Levin & Perconti said. Nissen, now 47, was admitted on Feb. 13, 2005 after suffering a stroke believed to be caused by an injury he suffered during an altercation while making an arrest as a Stone Park police officer. According to the release, due to the nursing staff's negligence, Nissen now suffers from quadriplegia, cannot eat or speak and can only communicate to family, friends and caregivers through eye movements and head shaking. Doctors inserted an external ventricular drain to drain excess fluid from his brain and on Feb. 21, his doctors ordered the nursing staff to test the the drain by clamping it to determine if he was stable enough to remove it, the release said. The suit claimed that during the procedure, nursing staff failed to properly monitor Nissen's intracranial presure. Throughout the night, his brain pressure was at dangerous levels, but his caregivers failed to recognize the changes in his condition or notify a doctor when levels rose. The lawsuit was filed against two UIC staff nurses, along with a healthcare staffing agency and an agency nurse who cared for Nissen that evening. The UIC staff nurse assigned to Nissen failed to report his changing condition to a doctor and did not give the agency nurse who took over Nissen's care an adequate report at the end of the shift, the release said. The settlement was reached just before a trial was to start, the release said. The family must now wait for the court to approve the settlement order, which is expectd in the coming weeks, teh release said. In total, Nissen was approved a $16.2 million settlement from the University of Illinois at Chicago Medical Center and $1.5 million from a defendant nursing agency. The law firm announced the approval on Nov. 18. © Copyright 2009 Sun-Times Media, LLC Check out our photo galleries: "Glee" Gets Racy - click right here .

  • THE PHILOSOPHY of STEVEN SODERBERGH the Philosophy of Popular Culture
    THE PHILOSOPHY OF STEVEN SODERBERGH The Philosophy of Popular Culture Th e books published in the Philosophy of Popular Culture series will illuminate and explore philosophical themes and ideas that occur in popular culture. Th e goal of this series is to demonstrate how philosophical inquiry has been reinvigorated by increased scholarly interest in the intersection of popular culture and philosophy, as well as to explore through philosophical analysis beloved modes of entertainment, such as movies, TV shows, and music. Philosophical concepts will be made accessible to the general reader through examples in popular culture. Th is series seeks to publish both established and emerging scholars who will engage a major area of popular culture for philosophical interpretation and examine the philosophical underpinnings of its themes.

  • Aces UP! 2012 Raises $100,000 for Urban Prep Academies
    Aces UP! 2012 raises $100,000 for Urban Prep Academies Urban Prep’s 6th Annual Aces UP! Charity Poker Tournament was hosted on Friday, November 30th at City Winery, one of Chicago’s newest entertainment and dining venues. Event hosts, Alexi Giannoulias, Richard Roeper, Tim King and Chris Zorich were back at it again with a first class event that raised $100,000 in support of Urban Prep Academies. Before the cards dropped, guests enjoyed a sumptuous buffet paired with luscious wines and endless premium spirits. This year’s lead sponsor, BNY Mellon Wealth Management added to the awesome prize pool for Aces UP! by raffling a holiday gift basket full of sophisticated goodies. Many guests also went “all-in” for an opportunity to sponsor a coveted red and gold striped tie for an Urban Prep senior with a special “Tie it UP” re-buy, giving tournament players additional chips for play. As the tournament dwindled to five players competing for a portion of the $10,000 prize pool, it was city of Chicago Alderman Richard Mell who claimed the grand prize. Having ousted a table of experienced poker players, Alderman Mell won the title and bragging rights of being this year’s tournament champion. Will he remain champ next year? Make sure you’re there to find out. Money raised at Aces UP! will go a long way toward helping Urban Prep’s students achieve their educational goals. Thank you to all of our sponsors, players, and spectators! Pictures from Aces UP! 2012 can be viewed at www.urbanprep.org/photos Aces UP! 2012 continued Aces UP! 2012 Sponsors Aces
