In a significant decision for healthcare providers and medical negligence jurisprudence in Uganda, the High Court dismissed a claim against Kampala Hospital arising from conflicting Hepatitis B test results, reaffirming that adherence to accepted medical practice and the use of NDA-approved testing kits do not amount to negligence merely because screening results are later contradicted by confirmatory tests.

The judgment reinforces the application of the Bolam principle, emphasizing that medical practitioners will not be found negligent where they exercise ordinary skill and act in accordance with practices accepted by a responsible body of medical professionals. It also highlights the importance of following established testing protocols, recommending confirmatory testing, and maintaining comprehensive records.

Our team led by Mikka Eriya, Philip Nsaja, and Hellen Juliana Ndagire successfully represented Kampala Hospital in this matter.

This is brilliant Kalinda . I love it . I don’t understand why we (Africans) can’t let go of the past. Slavery and colonialism can not be the cause of our innate selfishness and greed which are the biggest drivers of poor governance.
