What has become a frequent happening in
this particular country are lawsuits filed against medical malpractice. There
has been an increased in the premiums for insurance of the medical doctors for
the reason that there are also increasing number of lawsuits filed every year
at the most recent years.
We shall take a good look with the number
regarding the cases filed against medical malpractice at this particular area.
Based on the report of this particular institute in the year nineteen nineteen
nine, cases on medical malpractice have lead to the deaths every year of around
ninety eight thousand people. Last two thousand and six, there was another
research conducted about errors done in medication that have lead to injuries
every year reaching to about one point five million people. Another fact of
interest to know about is that there are lesser mistakes and deaths that
resulted from hospital over those that are not staying in these centers. In
return, it is said to be that there is more fatality and seriousness with the
injuries incurred inside the hospital.
With this particular dilemma, there is
still a lot more to do. Below are the usual kinds of malpractice done in the
medical field:
Giving a wrong diagnosis
The key role of the medical practitioner is
to determine what specific disease condition that the patient currently
experiences. When it comes to treating the patients, what has been considered
to be one of the most critical matters is this due to the reason that there
will likely be a wrong treatment delivered if there is a wrong diagnosis given.
A careful and thorough analysis of the laboratory results and physical
examination should be done since this is of great importance for the medical practitioners.
About forty percent of the overall Da Vinci lawsuit done is failing cancer of
the breast to be diagnosed based upon a study that was conducted.
Errors done with Medication Administration
The larger part of the cases filed against
medical malpractice such as a Da Vinci lawsuit comprises the failure to provide
the correct course of treatment for the client. Few of the errors or mistakes
done are providing the wrong medication, wrong combination of the medications
given, wrong dose of medicine, wrong
drug prescribed and many others. Well instead of curing or reducing the
signs and symptoms experienced, the patient may even suffer death or if not,
further develop the disease condition experienced.
Childbirth and injuries incurred
What can be harmful for both the mother and
the baby are the complications during birth of a child. From the following
given, during childbirth, the injuries that can be incurred can result from
these: No necessary tests were done to identify presence of any abnormality of
the child, failing to recognize the signs of distress of the fetus, making the
childbirth process to be done hastily that will lead to injury, no proper
check-up done and finally for children that are premature, there were no
appropriate care provided. Because of this negligent act, this may cause the
child to develop different conditions and injuries which will be appropriate
for a robotic surgery lawsuit
to be filed.
Other types of lawsuits may also include Da
Vinci Prostatectomy. These involves from other types of surgery
malpractices.
