Appeal is GRANTED, LIMITED TO Petitioners’ second issue, as stated by Petitioners:

             Whether the Superior Court’s holding directly conflicts with
             this Honorable Court’s holdings in Brady v. Urbas, 111 A.3d
             1155 (Pa. 2015), which permits evidence of general risks
             and complications in a medical negligence claim?
The Petition for Allowance of Appeal is DENIED as to all remaining issues. Petitioners’

Application to File Supplement to Petition for Allowance of Appeal is DENIED.
