La présomption res ipsa loquitur s’applique à la responsabilité médicale. [... ] Quand, dans le cours normal des choses, un événement ne doit pas se produire, mais arrive tout de même, et cause un dommage à autrui, et quand il est évident qu'il ne serait pas arrivé s’il n’ y avait pas eu de négligence, alors c'est à l'auteur de ce fait à démontrer qu'il y a une cause étrangère, dont il ne peut être tenu responsable et qui est la source de ce dommage. Si celui qui avait le contrôle de la chose réussit à établir à la satisfaction de la Cour, l'existence du fait extrinsèque, il aura droit au bénéfice de l'exonération [... ] 1, record 2, French, - pr%C3%A9somption%20res%20ipsa%20loquitur
