   The appeal is dismissed, sun sponte, as having been improvidently allowed.

Moyer, C.J., Douglas, Resnick and F.E. Sweeney, JJ., concur.

Wright, Pfeifer and Cook, JJ., dissent.

Wright, J.,

dissenting. I would affirm the court of appeals on the ground that the nurses’ negligence was not an actual cause of the plaintiffs injury.

Cook, J., concurs in the foregoing dissenting opinion.

Pfeifer, J.,

dissenting. I would reverse the Court of Appeals for Ross County because there is sufficient evidence of negligence and causation to survive a motion for summary judgment. Accordingly, I dissent.
