 Have you ever heard of a case where the surgeon left a glove in a patient’s stomach? Surgeons are the most reputed and trained medical professionals. However, sometimes they fail to provide the standard of care that the patient deserves. In such cases, the patient can claim Medical Malpractice. A Miami medical malpractice law firm can help you get the claim. In this blog, we will discuss How surgical errors lead to Medical Malpractice in Miami. Let us start

Cases of Surgical Errors

A standard of care is the patient’s essential requirement, expected from the surgeon, but the surgeon can make surgical errors. Performing surgery at the wrong site or even on the wrong patient is a pretty common error. Leaving foreign objects like gloves, watches or sponges inside the operated area is also included. Nerve damage causing paralysis in patients limbs is also a part of surgical error.

Reasons behind Surgical Errors

There can be different reasons behind surgical errors, like lack of skills or knowledge of the surgeon. Use of drugs or alcohol before the surgery, overworked surgeon or poor communication between the staff can lead to such errors. Every surgeon does some planning and study before the surgery; insufficient preoperative analysis of the patient details and the condition is also responsible for surgical errors.

Complications

Life-threatening complications may arise from such errors. Some of the debilitating complications are- nerve damage, organ failure, graft rejection or disfigurement of a body part. Common complications like scarring, swelling at the surgical site, infection and sepsis are also likely to happen. Some of the complications are minor and reversible while some cause irreparable damage to the patient.

Filing a claim for Surgical Negligence

Making surgical errors is punishable under the court of law. The patient can claim medical negligence. You can take the help of a medical malpractice Attorney to file the claim and get compensation from the surgeon. Compensation may cover the amount for corrective surgeries, at-home care and prescription medicines: lost wages and lost earning capacity. The surgeon may compensate for some non-monetary payments like the pain and suffering incurred by the patient and mental trauma caused to the patient.

Conclusion

Medical Malpractice cases do not mean that all Doctors or surgeons are negligent. Doctors can avoid these cases with a more cautious attitude towards the patients. If you claim compensation, you can seek medical malpractice lawyers advice, and he can also file the claim on your behalf.
