Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation can be a long and complicated process. It is necessary for the patient or legally appointed representative to prove that the physician violated the obligation of care owed to them and that an injury resulted.

Many proposals have been put forward to alter the legal rules that govern malpractice claims. They propose to replace the jury and trial system with a system that could reduce costs, expedite settlements, end overly large juries and screen out frivolous medical claims.

Misdiagnosis

Misdiagnosis is among the most prevalent forms of medical malpractice. It happens millions of times every year, and can result in devastating results, such as a need for unnecessary surgery lengthy hospital stays and unnecessary treatment. A misdiagnosis can even cause death, as in some cases involving severe injury or illness.

To prove that there was a malpractice, the doctor must have breached his duty to the patient by failing to diagnose an injury or illness in a timely manner. Most of the time, the inability of a doctor to meet the standard of care is demonstrated by an expert's opinion. This could be an expert in medicine who has extensive knowledge of the type of illness that is being investigated. The expert must also demonstrate that the physician failed to adequately add the disease to the list of differential diagnosis using methods like asking further questions, observing further or requesting further tests as part of the diagnosis process.

A plaintiff must also prove that the injuries caused by the misdiagnosis result of the breach of duty. This usually involves proving actual damages like past or future medical expenses, lost income in the form of pain and discomfort, reduced life span and other expenses. The victim must also file the suit within the statutes of limitations which usually are two or three years after the damage occurred.

Incorrect Procedure

It's shocking to hear that surgeons are performing the wrong procedure on a patient approximately 20 times a week. These mistakes could lead to unanticipated medical costs as well as additional suffering for patients. An experienced medical malpractice lawyer could help you pursue the compensation you require for your losses.

A successful malpractice lawsuit requires a strong argument that the physician is negligent. A claim of malpractice caused by a surgical error must demonstrate that the defendant's actions diverged from the standard of care that would have been provided by doctors who have similar training in similar circumstances. This can be accomplished through expert testimony and an extensive examination of medical records.

During the discovery phase, your attorney will exchange files with the defense team in order to be used in your case. These files could include medical and surgery records, lab reports, and documentation of your injury. Your lawyer will question witnesses in order to gather information about your case. In the course of the interview with the witness, the attorney opposing you will question you under an oath. This is known as a deposition.

The wrong-site surgery is a very rare yet serious form of malpractice. This type of error is usually caused due to a doctor's failure follow the surgical guidelines or the medical record of the patient. In this case it is simple to prove the negligence. However, determining which surgeon should be held responsible is not always straightforward.

Wrong Drugs

Drug errors can lead to harm or worsening of health conditions in more than a half a million Americans each year. Doctors must use extreme care when prescribing medicines, to ensure they are appropriate and safe for the patient. If you suffer a serious injury because of a doctor's deviations from the standard medical care, it could be an act of malpractice attorneys.

Sometimes an error isn't made in the doctor's offices but in the hospital. A nurse may misread an order for medication and prescribe the incorrect dosage or medication. A pharmacy can also make a mistake by filling out the wrong prescription or one with harmful ingredients.

Emergency Room Errors

Emergency rooms can be high-stress and high-pressure environments. This can be risky for the patients. Doctors are often under a lot of pressure to take on as many patients as possible and run tests as quickly as they can, communicate with each other and write or read reports all while providing quality care to each patient. Unfortunately, these busy environments result in mistakes that could cause catastrophic harm.

ER errors can range from misdiagnosis and premature discharge of a patient. The most frequent causes of ER errors are inadequate medical history, misinterpretation of test results and a failure to speak with specialists. ER staff can make errors when communicating between themselves and patients, for example, failing to communicate a patient's symptoms of allergies, health issues or other conditions or giving incorrect advice.

In order to have grounds for a malpractice lawsuit, the plaintiff must first demonstrate that the medical professional violated the standard of care. The standard of care is the standard of care that an honest medical professional with the same education and experience would have offered in similar circumstances. The plaintiff must then show that this negligence caused their injury and damages. A successful plaintiff may be able to obtain compensation for future or past medical bills, pain and suffering, lost earnings and earning potential and funeral expenses, if applicable.
