Injuries Resulting From Misdiagnosis and Failure to Diagnose
When we go to a doctor for medical care, we rely upon his or her expertise and professionalism. We trust that doctors, nurses and other medical professionals have our best interests at heart and work diligently to prevent unnecessary errors that may cause serious injury or death. Most often, we receive excellent care and appropriately regard quality health care providers as heroes.
Unfortunately, nurse understaffing, physician neglect and other forms of medical negligence are the cause of thousands of serious and fatal injuries every year. One common form of medical negligence is misdiagnosis. Examples of misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis include:
- Delayed diagnosis of treatable cancer
- Failure to detect signs of fetal distress
- Misdiagnosis of heart attack
- Misdiagnosis of stroke
- Failure to diagnose hypokalemia or hyperkalemia (low or high potassium)
- Failure to diagnose hyperbilirubinemia (symptoms include jaundice)
