What Is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional provides treatment that deviates from accepted standards of care within the medical community, thereby causing injury to a patient. If a doctor, surgeon, hospital, or another party was medically negligent, they may be liable for any ensuing losses. Medical negligence refers to a negligent act or omission – for example, removing the wrong organ or leaving a surgical tool in a patient’s body – that causes injury. If the victim can demonstrate that the negligent act was directly responsible for their injury, they may be awarded various damages (e.g., medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional suffering).
What Are Some Examples of Medical Malpractice?
Anesthesia Errors:
Various types of anesthesia serve distinct purposes in medical procedures, each carrying potential risks. General anesthesia renders the patient unconscious, while regional and local anesthesia target specific body parts. Complications, such as anesthesia awareness, may arise if administered incorrectly, leading to potential liability for negligent medical professionals. Examples of anesthesiologist negligence include improper dosing, delayed administration, failure to induce anesthesia, and mismanagement of medications and fluids.
Birth Injury:
Childbirth, ideally a joyous occasion, can turn tragic when medical professionals fail to ensure a safe process. Birth injuries like cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, or brachial plexus palsy may result from preventable causes, such as excessive force during delivery, delayed C-sections, oxygen deprivation, and failure to monitor. These injuries, often avoidable with reasonable medical care, underscore the importance of holding healthcare providers accountable for negligence during childbirth.
