The 33-year-old denies murdering seven babies and attempting to murder 10 others at Countess of Chester Hospital.
She abruptly left her seat in The dock at Manchester Crown Court as The Medic , who cannot be identified for legal reasons, confirmed his name.
The Court was hearing evidence about a twin Baby Boy , Child L, who Ms Letby is alleged to have attempted to kill.

He treated Child L in The Early Hours of 10 April 2015 - The Day after Ms Letby is Said to have attacked The Baby .
The Baby 's blood sugar levels were decreasing during The Night Shift and were " lower than what I would have wanted" He Said .

" It's damaging to a baby. If it falls to a much Lower Level , then it can cause liver damage and brain injury. "
Child L went on to make a full recovery, The Court has heard, and was discharged The Following month.
The infant's twin brother, Child M, was released at The same time after he too recovered from a collapse on 9 April - Said to have been caused by The defendant injecting air into his bloodstream or obstructing his airway.
