The Royal Caribbean passenger died while celebrating his 70th birthday.
A federal jury in Miami concluded Thursday that Royal Caribbean Cruises is largely responsible for the death of a passenger who went into cardiac arrest while on board a cruise of the Alaskan coastline, and that the company must pay the large majority of the nearly $5 million in damages awarded to the passenger's estate.
The Explorer was docked in Juneau at the time, but rather than have Puchalski taken offboard to be seen at a hospital, the estate says Dr. Saunders prescribed The ship’s physician prescribed metoprolol, a drug used to treat several heart-related conditions including high blood pressure and chest pain. The plaintiffs say Dr. Saunders made no effort to alert Puchalski's family regarding his potentially serious condition.
Per the family, by the time the patient arrived in Anchorage,"his condition had deteriorated to the extent that he was not salvageable," and he ultimately passed away on Aug. 4, 2016.
