When you go into surgery, it’s normal to be nervous about the dangers of going under the knife. However, mistakes can occur during the application of anesthesia, rather than the actual surgery. Anesthesia is the induced state of unconsciousness, where the body cannot feel or remember pain. It is used during complicated and extensive medical procedures.
If not administered correctly, anesthesia can cause lasting adverse side effects. If you or a loved one has experienced health problems because of anesthesia errors, contact our Portland anesthesia error attorney for a free case review.
At Paulson Coletti, “liberty and justice for all” is more than just a phrase – it is our mandate. Our team of trial lawyers is driven to pursue justice for the injured, ensuring that the responsible parties are held accountable. With a high success rate both in and out of the courtroom, you can trust our Oregon personal injury lawyers to be the legal advocates you need so your voice can be heard.
When an individual undergoes a major medical procedure, anesthesiologists will use drugs, gasses, and other forms of anesthesia to put the patient in an unconscious or semi-conscious state. The anesthesiologists have the responsibility to regulate vital organs and signs. One mistake can lead to lasting damage and even death.
Some common anesthesia errors include:
Anesthesiologists are trained to properly administer and monitor anesthetic procedures. Errors caused by negligence can lead to severe health issues. Some consequences of anesthesia errors include:
In some cases, an anesthesia error can prove fatal. In such a case, a Portland wrongful death lawyer can help you fight for justice for your lost loved one.
“Most cases settle, but each of our cases is prepared as if it’s going to trial. The insurance companies know it and so do the defense lawyers defending them. That’s why we get such great results for our clients.”
Proving liability in anesthesia error cases requires demonstrating that negligence occurred during the administration of anesthesia, leading to injury or harm. This involves establishing that the anesthesiologist or medical team failed to meet the standard of care, such as improper dosage, failure to monitor vital signs, or inadequate patient assessment. Expert testimony is often needed to show how the mistake directly caused harm. Additionally, detailed medical records, evidence of protocols, and witness statements play a critical role in building a strong case for liability in anesthesia errors. Our Portland anesthesia error lawyer can help with that.
At our experienced personal injury law firm, we understand how traumatic and debilitating anesthesia errors can be. If you or a loved one has suffered adverse health issues because of anesthesia errors, our Portland medical malpractice lawyers are ready to help you.
