Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.
Jury interrogatories must be based on claims supported by the evidence ( see Marzuillo v Isom, 277 AD2d 362, 363). Here, the Supreme Court properly declined to submit to the jury the proposed interrogatory regarding whether the defendants departed from the standard of care and proximately caused the plaintiffs injuries by failing to order a CT scan on November 20, 2002, as that theory of recovery was not based on evidence adduced at trial ( see Murray v Maniatis, 21 AD3d 1012, 1013; cf. Beizer v Schwartz, 15 AD3d 433, 434).
The plaintiffs remaining contention is raised for the first time on appeal and is not properly before this Court.
