What Constitutes Surgery Malpractice?
Surgery malpractice, also known as medical malpractice, occurs when a surgeon or other healthcare professional deviates from the accepted standard of care during a surgical procedure. This can encompass a wide range of errors, including:
- Wrong-Site Surgery: Operating on the wrong part of the body.
- Nerve Damage: Injury to nerves during surgery, leading to chronic pain or loss of function.
- Foreign Object Retention: Leaving surgical instruments, sponges, or other materials inside the patient’s body.
- Anesthesia Errors: Improper administration or monitoring of anesthesia, resulting in brain damage, respiratory failure, or other complications.
- Post-Operative Negligence: Failure to adequately monitor the patient’s condition after surgery, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment of complications.
