abstract
  • Maternity is a 1st season episode of House which first aired on December 7, 2004. When a newborn has a seizure and another newborn becomes ill, House believes an epidemic is spreading through the hospital. Cuddy dismisses the suggestion until other babies show up with the same symptoms. House and his team race against time to diagnose the illness, but the choices they have to make may be lethal to some of the newborns if their diagnosis is incorrect. This episode, the fourth in the series, is the first to break away from what has always seemed to be the standard format of "patient of the week". It is also the first episode of the series to involve the death of a primary patient, one of the infants. It's also the first episode to bring up another issue that was later explored in All In, Kids and Meaning - House seeing a medical mystery that no-one else sees and everyone else believing House has seen something that's not there. Later, we learn that House has a history of looking for zebras when all that's there is a horse and making the patient suffer for it. As for the development of other characters, Cameron is put front and center here and House soon figures out that she has lost someone to illness. It's only revealed later in the series who that person is and how it further complicates her character.
