Common Types of Medical Malpractice:
Medical malpractice includes a variety of errors and negligent actions by healthcare providers that result in patient harm. Common types include misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, where a medical condition is incorrectly identified or discovered too late, often leading to worsened outcomes. Surgical errors, like wrong-site surgery or leaving instruments inside the body, can cause significant complications. Medication errors, including incorrect dosages or administering the wrong drug, pose serious risks to patients. Birth injuries, resulting from negligent prenatal care or errors during delivery, can lead to long-term health issues for both mother and child. Anesthesia errors, like improper administration or failure to monitor the patient, can result in severe injury or death. Additionally, the failure to obtain informed consent, where patients are not fully informed of the risks involved in a procedure, also constitutes medical malpractice. Understanding these common types helps in recognizing and addressing medical negligence effectively.
