Common Anesthesia Malpractice Scenarios
Across all the anesthesia malpractice cases we’ve handled at Polewski & Associates, a common theme emerges: failure to adhere to basic safety standards or lack of attention during procedures. Some of the cases we’ve encountered include:
- Failure to properly monitor a patient’s breathing, resulting in brain damage or death.
- Complications from regional nerve blocks, such as epidurals during childbirth or interscalene blocks during arm surgery.
- Spinal cord injuries during procedures like epidural steroid injections, leading to paralysis or permanent disability.
- Administration of the wrong dosage or type of anesthesia, causing adverse reactions or ineffective anesthesia.
- Negligence in intubation, leading to severe injuries to the throat or lungs.
How We Can Help
The ramifications of anesthesia malpractice extend beyond physical injury, often causing financial and emotional turmoil for families. It’s important to remember that anesthesiologists carry medical malpractice insurance to compensate affected individuals and families.
Filing a malpractice lawsuit is about more than just seeking financial compensation. It’s about preventing future incidents and potentially saving lives. If you suspect that you or a loved one has been a victim of anesthesia malpractice, it’s crucial to act swiftly. Legal time limits, known as statutes of limitations, could prevent you from filing a claim if you wait too long.
