Common Causes of Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation is a complex procedure. The question of whether or not the error constitutes malpractice depends on the ability of the patient to prove four legal elements which include professional duty and breach of this duty; injury caused by the breach and quantifiable damages.

Plaintiffs must prove these elements through evidence such as expert testimony, depositions, or discovery.

Incorrect diagnosis and inability to diagnose

The failure of a physician to correctly diagnose an illness or injury can result in grave complications, or even death. Misdiagnosis is a common cause of medical negligence. To prove negligence, a person or their lawyer must demonstrate that a qualified doctor in similar circumstances would not have misdiagnosed the condition.

The misdiagnosis of a patient does not always mean malpractice. Even highly-trained and experienced doctors are not immune to mistakes. Therefore, a claim of malpractice has to be backed up by other elements, such as breach, proximate cause or actual injury. For example If a doctor is not careful to clean their equipment prior the time they administer anesthesia to a patient and they develop an infection as a result, the doctor could be liable for malpractice.

Lawsuits that claim malpractice are usually filed in state trial courts, where the alleged error occurred. However, federal courts could be able to hear cases in specific circumstances. For instance, a claim could be filed in federal court in the event of a dispute over the time limit for filing a claim or when there is a substantial diversity of citizenship of the parties involved in the case. Alternatively, some claims are settled through voluntary binding arbitration. This is a less formal process that involves professionals who make the decisions. It is intended to cut costs, speed up legal proceedings and reduce the possibility of excessively generous juries. Arbitration is not accessible in all cases of misconduct.

The wrong dosage of medication

Medication errors, also known as medication mistakes, are one of the most frequent causes of medical malpractice lawsuits. They can involve a physician writing a prescription incorrectly or delivering the wrong dose to the patient. These mistakes are usually preventable. Depending on the circumstances, a hospital or its staff, pharmacist or other health professionals could be held responsible for the harms suffered by a patient who was given the wrong drug dosage.

A doctor could prescribe the wrong medication because of a misdiagnosis or simply making a mistake in the prescription. A health professional may also administer the wrong dosage due to an interruption in communication like when nurses read a doctor's handwritten script incorrectly or the pharmacist makes a mistake in filling the prescription. In other instances the doctor could delay the administration of the correct medication, which can cause the patient's illness to getting worse.

A victim must prove, to be successful in a malpractice claim, that the medical professional breached their standards of practice and that their injuries were directly attributed to the negligence. This requires medical expert testimony. Additionally, a medical malpractice Lawyers case must establish the severity of a victim's injuries and the damages they suffered as a result of the negligence. This includes the cost of treatment as well as any lost wage. The greater loss is in the greater value of the claim will be.

Unskillful Procedure

This type of incident is not uncommon. It might seem unattainable for medical professionals to perform the incorrect procedure on patients, however, it happens. A surgeon who commits this error can be found responsible for malpractice. A patient who is injured as a result of an error during surgery may be held responsible for any negligence that occurred during the procedure.

A health professional accused of negligence must prove that a patient was injured by an act or inability to act. To prove this the legal team of the patient must prove that: (1) the doctor had a duty to provide care or treatment; (2) that the doctor breached the duty of care; (3) that there is a direct causal link between the breach and the injury and (4) that the injury causes damages that the legal system is able to deal with.

A breach of the duty of care has no significance unless it causes injury which is why medical malpractice claims are usually built on a legal concept called "res ipsa loquitur." This law states that, in a majority of cases, certain injuries are so obvious and unmistakable that they can only be explained through negligent actions.

Depending on the facts of the situation, the plaintiff (the patient or their legally designated representative) or their attorney can present the claim to federal or state court. The majority of malpractice cases are filed in state courts, but in certain situations, a medical negligence lawsuit could be filed with a federal district court.

Wrong Surgery

A wrong-site procedure is a rare mistake, but it could be considered medical malpractice when the procedure is performed on the wrong area of the body. This kind 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 simultaneously. In these cases the surgeon is not solely accountable for a mistaken-site procedure due to the legal principle of "res ipsa locquitur" which states that the outcome is a matter of fact and cannot be blamed on negligence.

If someone is injured during an operation that was performed on the wrong site and is injured, they may require additional procedures in order to correct issues that were caused by the error. This could result in expensive medical expenses for patients and their families. It is important to keep these costs in mind when calculating the financial burden of medical malpractice lawsuits.

Most often surgeons are liable for surgical mistakes. They are responsible in preparing the patient for the procedure, examining the chart and medical records of the patient, coordinating with the rest of the medical personnel, and ensuring that the incision was made at the correct location. In some instances the hospital or anesthesiologist may also be held responsible. Medical malpractice cases are typically filed in state courts, but in certain situations they may be transferred to federal courts.
