Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the memory disorder was causally attributable to the elbow surgery or to the cardiac arrest and resuscitation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The memory impairment was not proven to stem from the surgery; it was to be treated as a lasting deficit following the cardiac arrest and resuscitation.
Extrahierte Begründung
The medical file showed immediate post-arrest cognitive deficits that persisted, whereas the post-surgery period contained no comparable complaints. The anesthesia hypothesis was not established with the required probability.
