1. What is ER Malpractice and How Does It Happen?
Emergency room errors occur when a person goes to an emergency room and rather than receiving appropriate treatment the patient instead becomes the victim of hospital malpractice or doctor malpractice and leaves the hospital with additional and more complicated medical problems. The acceptable standard of care in an emergency room setting includes the responsibility to identify the medical condition and/or problem and then to take the appropriate corrective action. 2. What Are Some Common Examples of Emergency Room Errors:
- Failure to properly diagnose a serious medical condition; - Failure to treat a serious medical condition; - Untimely diagnosis of a serious medical condition; - Untimely treatment of a serious medical condition, such as stoke, embolism, blood clot or heart attack; - Failure to obtain informed consent for a medical procedure; - Miscoding or misinterpretation of a diagnostic test such as an x-ray, CT scan or MRI 3. What Are Some Complications That Can Result From ER Malpractice?
The injuries sustained by these victims of hospital malpractice are quite diverse and can range from stroke to paralysis to coma and even death. 4. What Should I Do If I Have Been The Victim Of Medical Malpractice?
If you are the victim of emergency room malpractice you should contact a medical malpractice lawyer immediately. Your attorney should be able to line up a team of experts to help you develop and present your case. In most instances, all of these costs will be advanced by the law firm and will only be repaid upon the successful conclusion of your case. If you suspect you are a medical malpractice victim for any reason, it is recommended that you seek legal advice immediately.
