    We disagree. In Ruvio v. North Broward Hospital, 186 So.2d 45 (Fla. 1966), it was held that decedent's wife had failed to establish that any action or inaction on the part of the hospital was the proximate cause of the death of her husband, and a verdict was directed in favor of the hospital. In that case, however, the medical testimony was to the effect that the delay in admission to the hospital would not have made any difference as to the demise of plaintiff's decedent.
