Common Injuries Due to Hospital/ Physician Negligence
In medical malpractice claims, there are some common injuries that occurr over and over again. Of course, these types of injuries are not always the result of medical malpractice, but, too often, they are. These are some of the most common injuries associated with hospital or physician malpractice:
- Decubitus ulcers
- Failure to rescue
- Foreign body left in during a procedure
- latrogenic pneumothroax
- Infections due to medical care
-Post-operative hip fractures
-Post-operative hemorrhage or hematoma
-Medication errors
-Post-operative pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis
-Post-operative sepsis
-Post-operative wound dehiscence
There are inherent risks with every procedure, and sometimes things go wrong even when the best of care is provided. However, too often mistakes cost lives and ruin futures.
