Common Causes of Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation is a complicated procedure. If a patient is able to prove four factors, it will determine whether or not the mistake is malpractice. These are the following: a professional obligation in breach of this obligation; a repercussion from this breach; and measurable damages.
Plaintiffs must also prove the elements by using evidence like expert testimony and depositions.
Undiagnosed or Incorrectly Diagnosed
Failure to diagnose an injury or illness correctly can cause serious complications, or death. It is a typical cause of medical negligence. To prove negligence, a patient or their lawyer needs to prove that a qualified doctor in similar circumstances would not have misdiagnosed the condition.
Not every misdiagnosis is negligence, but. Even highly experienced and trained doctors are not immune to mistakes. Therefore, a claim for malpractice must be backed by other factors, such as breach, proximate cause or actual injury. For instance the case where a physician is not careful to sterilize their equipment prior to giving anesthesia and the patient suffers an infection due to the infection, the doctor could be liable for malpractice.
In most instances, lawsuits claiming malpractice will be filed in the state trial court in which the alleged malpractice lawsuit took place. However, federal courts may be able to hear cases in specific circumstances. A case may be brought before a federal court in certain circumstances. For example it could be disputes over a statute of limitation or when the parties have different nationalities. Additionally, some cases are resolved through binding arbitration that is voluntary. This is a less formal process that involves professionals who make the decisions. It is designed to cut costs, speed up legal proceedings and remove the possibility of excessively generous juries. Arbitration is not always available in cases of misconduct.
Wrong Drug Dosage
Medication errors--also called medication mistakes--are one of the main causes of medical malpractice lawsuits. They can be caused by a physician prescribing a prescription in error or administering the wrong dosage to the patient. These errors are generally preventable. In the event of an incident an individual pharmacy, hospital or other health care providers could be held responsible for injuries caused by patients who were given the wrong dosage of a drug.
A doctor might prescribe the wrong drug because of a misdiagnosis or simply failing to read the prescription. A health care professional may also administer the incorrect dosage due to a breakdown in communication. For example nurses might not read a doctor's prescription correctly or a pharmacist may make a mistake when filling the prescription. In other instances doctors may delay the administration of the correct medication to the patient, which could result in the patient's condition getting worse.
In order to be successful in an action for malpractice, a victim must establish that the medical professional acted in breach of their standard of care and that their negligence directly led to the injuries. This requires the testimony of a medical expert. Furthermore, a medical negligence case must demonstrate the extent of a victim's injuries and the damages they suffered because of the negligence. This includes the cost of treatment and any lost wage. The more loss you suffer is, the more valuable of the claim.
Unskillful Procedure
It might seem absurd that medical professionals would carry out the wrong procedure on a patient, but this type of mishap occurs. A surgeon who makes this error may be held responsible for negligence. If a patient is injured due to an error during surgery may be held liable for any mistakes that were made during the procedure.
A health care professional who is accused of malpractice must demonstrate that a patient was injured by a specific act, or inability to act. To establish this the legal counsel of the patient must demonstrate that: (1) the doctor was in an obligation to provide treatment or treatment; (2) that the doctor did not fulfill 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 could deal with.
A breach of duty of care has no meaning unless it result in injury. This is the reason medical malpractice cases are typically dependent on the lawful doctrine "res ipsa locquitur" which says that certain injuries are so obvious that they can only be explained through negligence.
Depending on the circumstances of the case, the plaintiff (the patient or their legally appointed representative) or their lawyer may present the claim to state or federal court. Most malpractice cases are filed in state court, however in certain circumstances medical malpractice lawsuits could be filed in federal district court.
Wrong Surgery
The procedure that is performed on the wrong site is not common but it can be considered medical malpractice in the event that the procedure is carried out in the wrong area of your body. This type of error usually occurs as caused by miscommunication between members of a surgical team or production pressure that leads to the surgeon being tasked with multiple surgeries at once. In these cases, a surgeon is not solely responsible for an incorrect-site operation due to the legal principle of "res ipsa locquitur" which says that the outcome is a matter of fact and cannot be attributed to negligence.
If someone is injured during an incorrect procedure, he or her may need additional procedures to correct problems that were made worse by the error. This could result in expensive medical expenses for patients and their families. These expenses should be taken into consideration when calculating the financial impact of medical malpractice claims.
The majority of times, surgeons are held responsible for surgical mistakes. They are responsible in preparing the patient prior to the procedure, examining the medical records and chart of the patient, communicating with the rest of the medical staff, and ensuring that the incision was placed in the proper location. However, in certain instances an anesthesiologist or a hospital could also be accountable. Medical malpractice claims are typically filed in state court, but can be transferred under certain circumstances to federal court.
