Common Causes of Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation involves a complex procedure. If an error is malpractice law firms based on the ability of the patient to establish four legal elements such as a professional duty; breach of this duty; harm due to the breach and quantifiable damages.
Plaintiffs must also prove these elements by presenting evidence such as expert testimony, depositions, or discovery.
Incorrect diagnosis and inability to diagnose
The inability of a doctor to diagnose an illness or injury can result in grave complications, or even death. It is a typical cause of medical malpractice. To show negligence, the patient or their lawyer must prove that an experienced doctor in similar circumstances would not have misdiagnosed a condition.
Every misdiagnosis can be considered to be negligence, but. Even highly-trained and experienced doctors can make mistakes. Therefore, a claim of malpractice must be backed up by other elements such as breach, proximate cause and actual injury. For example the case where a physician does not take the time to clean their equipment prior the time they administer anesthesia to a patient and they develop an infection because of it, the doctor could be found to be negligent.
Lawsuits that claim malpractice are usually filed in state trial courts where the alleged error occurred. Federal courts can however have jurisdiction in certain circumstances. For example, a claim could be filed in federal court if there is disputes over a statute of limitations or when there is a significant variety of citizenship among the parties to the case. Certain disputes are settled through arbitration that is binding and voluntary. This is a less-formal process that is governed by professional decision makers. It is designed to lower expenses, speed up the legal process, and remove the risk of overly large juries. However, arbitration isn't accessible for all claims of malpractice.
The wrong dosage of medication
Medication errors, also referred as medication errors, are one of the main causes of medical malpractice suits. These errors can be caused by a physician who writes prescriptions in the wrong format or giving the patient the wrong dosage. These errors are typically preventable. Based on the circumstances, a hospital, its staff, a pharmacist or other health care professionals could be held accountable for the injuries sustained by a patient who was prescribed the wrong dosage of medication.
A doctor could prescribe the wrong medicine because of a misdiagnosis or simply misreading the prescription. A health care professional may also prescribe the wrong dosage due to a breakdown in communication. For example, a nurse may read a doctor's script incorrectly or a pharmacist might make an error when filling the prescription. In other situations the doctor may delay the administration of the correct medication to the patient, which could result in the patient's condition getting worse.
A person seeking compensation must prove, for the sake of winning a malpractice claim, that the medical professional violated their standards of practice and that their injuries were directly caused by the negligence. This requires medical experts to be able to testify. A medical malpractice case must establish the extent and severity of the victim's injuries. This includes the costs of treatment as well as any wages lost. The more the loss, the higher the value of the claim.
Incorrect Procedure
This kind of situation is not unusual. It may seem like a challenge for medical professionals to perform the wrong procedure on patients but it does happen. A surgeon who commits this error may be held responsible for negligence. However, a patient who is injured due to a surgical error can also be held accountable for any negligence that occurred along the path to the procedure.
Any health professional who is accused of misconduct must prove that the patient was injured due to a specific act or omission to act. To establish this the legal team representing the patient must demonstrate that: (1) the doctor was bound by a duty to provide care or treatment; (2) that the doctor breached this duty; (3) that there is a direct causal relationship between the breach and the injury; and (4) that the injury causes damages that the legal system is able to address.
A breach of duty of care has no meaning unless it results in injury. This is why medical malpractice cases are typically based on the legal doctrine "res ipsa locquitur," which states that certain injuries are so obvious that they can only be explained through negligence.
Based on the facts of the situation, the plaintiff (the patient or their legally designated representative) or their attorney may present the claim to federal or state court. Most malpractice cases are filed in state court, but under limited circumstances, a medical malpractice case may be filed in federal district court.
Wrong Surgery
The procedure that is performed on the wrong site is not common however, it could be a case of medical malpractice when the procedure is done in the wrong area of your body. This type of error usually occurs as caused by a lack of communication between members of a surgical team or production pressure that results in a surgeon being assigned multiple surgeries at once. In these instances, the surgeon is not the only one with responsibility for a surgical error that is not performed correctly because there is the legal principle known as "res ipsa loquitur" which means that the result of the error speaks for itself and cannot be attributed to negligence.
If someone is injured during an operation that was performed on the wrong site, he or her may require additional procedures in order to correct issues that were caused by the error. Patients and their families are left with high medical bills. It is essential to take these costs into consideration when calculating the financial cost of medical malpractice lawsuits.
Most often, surgeons are held responsible for surgical errors. They are responsible in preparing the patient for the procedure, as well as checking the chart and medical records of the patient, communicating with the medical staff, and ensuring that the incision was placed in the correct place. In certain instances, a hospital or anesthesiologist could also be held accountable. Medical malpractice lawsuits are typically filed in state courts, but can be transferred under certain circumstances to federal court.
