Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation is often a long and complicated procedure. It is necessary for the patient or an legally appointed representative to show that the doctor did not fulfill the obligation of care owed to them, and that an injury resulted.

There were a variety of proposals made to alter the legal rules that govern medical malpractice claims. The trial and jury system was replaced by an alternative that could cut costs and speed settlements, reduce juries with excessively generous verdicts and eliminate fraudulent claims.

Misdiagnosis

Medical malpractice is often caused by mistaken diagnosis. It occurs millions of times every year and can result in devastating results, such as the need for unneeded surgery, long hospital stays, and unnecessarily aggressive treatment. A misdiagnosis could result in death, in some cases that involve severe injury or illness.

To prove malpractice it must be proven that the doctor was bound by obligations to the patient and breached that obligation by failing to identify the injury or illness properly. In the majority of cases, inability of the doctor to provide the required care is demonstrated by an expert opinion. This can be an expert medical professional who has vast knowledge of the kind of illness in question. The expert must also show that the doctor did not adequately add the disease to his or her list of differential diagnosis by using methods like asking additional questions, making further observations or requesting additional tests in the diagnostic process.

A plaintiff also has to prove that the injuries caused by a misdiagnosis are a direct result from the breach of duty. This usually means establishing actual damages, malpractice like future and past medical expenses as well as lost income, pain and suffering, shortened life expectancy, and other damages. Finally, the victim must file the suit within the time frame of the statute of limitations, which is typically two or three years after the date of the incident.

It may be shocking to learn that surgeons perform the wrong procedure on a patient approximately 20 times a week. These surgical errors could result in unexpected medical expenses and further discomfort for patients.

A successful malpractice lawsuit demands a convincing case of negligence on the part of the doctor malpractice in question. A claim of negligence due to an error in surgery must prove that the defendant's action was different from the norm of care that would be provided by similarly skilled doctors in similar situations. This can be accomplished by expert testimony and a thorough examination of medical documents.

During the discovery process, your attorney and the defense team will exchange relevant documents to use in your case. These documents can include medical and surgical records, lab reports and evidence of your injuries. Your lawyer will interview witnesses in order to gather information on your case. During the interview with the witness, the attorney opposing you will ask you questions under an oath. This is known as a deposition.

Surgery performed on the wrong site is a rare and serious form of malpractice. This type of malpractice usually is the result of an individual doctor who does not follow the recommendations of a surgeon or the medical history of a patient. In this case, it is easy to prove negligence. It's not always simple to decide which surgeon is accountable.

However, these hectic environments can result in mistakes that could cause catastrophic harm.

ER errors range from mistaken diagnosis of a patient, to premature discharge. The most common causes of ER errors are a lack of medical history or misinterpretation of test results and the inability to consult specialists.
