"Forceful CPR" could not explain liver damage suffered by a baby allegedly murdered by nurse Lucy Letby, a court has heard.Letby, 33, is said to have attacked the new-born triplet on a day shift on June 23, 2016, at the Countess of Chester's neo-natal unit following her return from a holiday to Ibiza.
On Thursday, Ben Myers KC, cross-examining, said:"Can you assist with how little force could be involved?" He agreed that smaller internal bruising to the liver sustained by Child O's triplet brother Child P - who Letby is alleged to have murdered the next day - could be capable of being caused by CPR.
Mr Myers asked:"Is it possible in your opinion for at least some of what we see in the damage to the liver arising from the insertion of a cannula?"
