Common Examples of Medical Malpractice Include:

  • Misdiagnosis – If a doctor diagnoses a condition incorrectly, or fails to diagnose a condition they should have spotted, a patient could be injured or even killed. A misdiagnosis might lead to being prescribed a dangerous medication. Failing to diagnose on time could allow life-threatening conditions to progress further than necessary.
  • Surgical Error – Many surgeries carry a risk of death, even when they are performed correctly. A surgical error greatly increases the chances of death or long-term complications.
  • Anesthesia Error – Anesthesiologists have a responsibility to administer the correct type and dosage of anesthesia and watch for potentially fatal anesthesia allergies or drug interactions in their patients. An anesthesia error could easily lead to a person dying during even the most routine surgery.
  • Birth Injury – Errors made during the birthing process could lead to lifelong consequences for your child, or even lead to their death. 
  • Nursing Home Neglect – It is important to note that not all malpractice cases stem from mistakes. Nursing home personnel have a responsibility to ensure the health and safety of the residents in their care, and if they are negligent in that duty, you may be able to file a nursing home neglect lawsuit against them or the nursing home that employs them.
