Most Common Types of Medical Malpractice
- Anesthesia Complications - Improper administration of anesthesia can result in serious physical impairment or death.
- Burn therapy - Care providers can be held liable if adequate emergency therapy on burns causes excessive injury, loss of tissue, or death.
- Child delivery - There are many complications that can cause malformations, birth injury, cerebral palsy, or brain damage.
- Heart Attack - One of the most common forms of medical malpractice is the failure to diagnose heart attacks in a timely fashion.
- Surgical Errors - If evaluation, preparation, any part of the surgery, or postoperative care is performed incorrectly, the procedure may fail or serious side effects can occur.
- Medication - Insufficient amounts of medication, improper instructions, or prescribing the wrong medication.
- Failure to diagnose - Any injury that results from medical professionals making an incorrect or delayed diagnosis. Aneurisms, breast cancer, and heart attack are often undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.
- Experimentation - Any healthcare professionals using procedures or drugs that are unapproved by reputable medical organizations put a patient at risk.
- General Improper Procedure - Medical professionals can make simple mistakes that can be costly to the injured. Examples include delays in treatment or failure to obtain proper consent for treatment.
