How to File a Medical Malpractice Case
Medical malpractice cases can be a bit complicated. A knowledgeable attorney can help you through this process and help you understand your rights.
You must prove that your doctor or other healthcare professional did not fulfill their duty of care towards you in order to pursue a malpractice suit. The breach could have resulted in a negative legal outcome for you, like an unfavorable outcome for your medical treatment or financial loss.
Birth defects
The birth of a child is a very thrilling time for parents. Unfortunately, medical issues could occur during this time. This can be due to birth defects, like cleft lips and missing limbs or congenital heart diseases and muscular dystrophy. If a medical professional's negligence during pregnancy or delivery caused these conditions, you could be able to file a malpractice lawsuit claim.
Birth defects can arise due to different reasons, such as exposure to prescription medications, toxic chemicals, environmental factors and prenatal issues. The doctor's role in ensuring the well-being and health of pregnant and unborn babies involves conducting appropriate screening tests, identifying and treating anomalies during pregnancy and conducting appropriate tests for screening.
Medical experts must determine if a doctor's negligence in diagnosing or treating the condition was negligent and led to serious injury. To establish negligence, an expert must look at the standard of care that a physician would have followed in similar circumstances and demonstrate that the doctor deviated from that standard and caused the injury or death.
In addition to hiring experts, it is important to collect evidence at the scene of the accident. Also, interview any eyewitnesses. This can include witnesses at the hospital and other patients as well as their families, nurses, and more. Also, you must take photographs of your child's injuries to show how severe they are.
Maternal deaths
Every year, between 700 and 900 women die from complications during pregnancy or childbirth. This is a staggering amount particularly for a nation located in the world's first, such as the United States. USA Today recently reported that many of these deaths could have been prevented by better medical care in hospitals.
Some of the causes for maternal deaths are obstetric emergencies that include bleeding that is severe during birth or hemorrhage afterward, and pre-existing conditions like obesity and diabetes that can affect pregnancy and childbirth. Doctors also have the obligation to watch for warning signs, such as high blood pressure, which could lead to preeclampsia, an extremely dangerous condition. Preeclampsia can cause premature separation from the placenta and seizures. It may also cause an extremely dangerous condition called HELLP Syndrome.
Medical malpractice lawsuits that involve gynecology and obstetrics are some of the most common kinds of lawsuits filed in the United States. In a malpractice case the plaintiff must prove the healthcare provider or doctor violated the accepted standard of care and that the negligence caused the plaintiff's injury or death. The standard of care is determined by the legal community and varies from state to state. Despite the large number of malpractice cases, most are settled prior to trial. Settlements are usually reached through direct negotiations between the parties, and sometimes with the help of an impartial mediator (often a retired judge or attorney). Medical malpractice lawsuits aren't an easy way to disqualify a physician from practice, neither is it a quick way to remove a physician from practice.
Injuries that result from surgery
Medical advances have dramatically reduced the chances of adverse outcomes following surgery, however they do happen. When they occur they can result in serious injuries. Apart from being uncomfortable and inconvenient these injuries could lead to costly corrective surgeries, excessive medical expenses, prolonged recovery time, or even death.
Not all surgical errors are mistakes. To prove a case it must be shown that a healthcare professional didn't follow the standards of care during an operation, and this error caused injuries. A case of medical malpractice can include:
Wrong-site surgery, which means the surgeon performs surgery on a different body part than intended leaving a scalpel, sponge or other piece inside of a patient; injuring or nicking an organ or nerve; infections result from improperly cleaned or sanitized equipment; and more.
A surgical error lawsuit can be a difficult issue, so it is important to seek out the advice of an attorney with experience in medical malpractice. It is also important to document any injuries, including photos and make notes about any details that you think could be relevant to the case. It can take years for a case of surgical error to be resolved however it's worth it if you've been injured by your doctor's mistake. This is especially true if you suffer severe injuries that significantly affect your quality of life.
Wrongful death
The loss of a loved one can be extremely stressful. However, if the death is due to negligence of another and carelessness, it can be incredibly painful. According to the laws of your state, it may be possible to make a claim against the party to recover damages for your loss.
A wrongful death differs from a medical malpractice claim since it involves the life of a person, rather than their health. Therefore, the level of proof is higher - it must be proven beyond an unreasonable doubt that the loved person's death was caused by another party's negligence.
Joan's husband, for example was killed by a lung tumour that was missed by an x-ray. His death was caused by doctors who failed to monitor the patient's symptoms and to perform an MRI when the patient had difficulty breathing. The resulting delay in treatment allowed the tumor to grow and cause irreparable harm.
In this case the family members of the patient may file a wrongful death claim against the doctor and the hospital. The type of damages you are able to claim is contingent on the laws in your state, just as in a medical negligence case. They can cover economic and non-economic damages such as funeral costs, loss of consortium, and pain and discomfort prior to the death of the victim. Punitive damages are a possibility in wrongful-death claims. This amount isn't included in every case, but it's applicable if the victim's death is due to multiple mishaps or a particularly serious death.
