Mollie is a 9-year-old girl admitted to the hospital following a seizure on the playground at school. She has been diagnosed with a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM). A craniotomy with attendant clipping and removal of the AVM has been proposed. Mollie is in a foster home with a guardian. Her biological parents are both dead.

5. During the procedure, the power equipment called a craniotome was used. During the case, the craniotome malfunctioned, causing harm to Mollie. Describe why this may be considered negligence and what you should do to prevent harm or damage during the use of any type of equipment or instrumentation.
