[52 A.D.2d 450 Page 451] This is a wrongful death action to recover for negligence against the defendant hospital. The decedent was injured in an automobile accident at 8:20 p.m. on February 6, 1971 and was admitted to defendant's emergency room at 9:15 p.m. Dr. Bitash was covering the emergency room but the record does not disclose what type of treatment, if any, was administered to the decedent by him.
