Anesthesia Errors

Anesthesia errors can include incorrect dosage, failure to monitor the patient properly, use of defective equipment, or administering the wrong type of anesthetic. These mistakes can lead to severe complications such as brain damage, nerve injury, or even death.

To prove an anesthesia error, you need to establish that there was a breach of the standard of care by obtaining medical records, expert testimony from anesthesiologists or other medical professionals who can explain how the error deviated from accepted practices and directly caused your injury.

Compensation may cover medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, pain and suffering, disability accommodations, and potentially punitive damages if gross negligence is proven. A thorough review by a medical malpractice lawyer will help determine the specific damages applicable to your case.
