Common Examples Of Surgical Errors Or Malpractice
A study by the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) reported that one out of every 10 patient deaths within 90 days of surgery was the result of a preventable error.
Examples of surgical malpractice include:
- Performing the wrong procedure or operating on the wrong body part
- Failing to take proper precautions to protect nearby organs, nerves, blood vessels and tissues from unintended damage
- Negligence that causes an operating room fire that injures the patient
- Leaving an instrument, medical supply or device in the patient
- Anesthesiology errors that can result in severe pain and permanent injuries
