Yale University has reached a settlement with a group of patients who suffered severe discomfort during egg retrieval procedures at its fertility clinic, following a scandal involving the improper administration of anesthesia.

The lawsuits emerged after allegations that a nurse at the clinic replaced anesthesia with saline, causing painful experiences for many patients. The specific amount paid by Yale to settle these claims remains undisclosed; however, representatives for the plaintiffs described the award as “significant.” Legal documents suggest a tentative settlement could amount to about $2 million per affected patient.

“This settlement represents a step forward in the healing process for all involved,” said Karen Peart, a Yale spokeswoman.

The agreement also includes changes to staffing and clinical procedures to prevent future incidents, ensuring higher standards of care and monitoring at Yale medical facilities.

This resolution marks a significant moment in addressing and resolving the grievances of those affected by supervision at the Yale Fertility Clinic.
