Anesthesia Malpractice

Anesthesia errors can have consequences such as death or serious injury. When an anesthesia error or mistake causes death or injury, a medical malpractice claim may exist. At Meinhart, Smith & Manning, PLLC, we work to obtain those answers and work to gain compensation for the injured and their loved ones.

Anesthesia Errors

Negligence, or malpractice, can occur at any point during a surgery. Sometimes injuries sustained are due to mistakes by the doctor in charge of anesthesia. It may result from using an improper drug, not using enough of a particular paralytic, not recognizing a loss of oxygen, or improper intubation.

Meinhart, Smith & Manning, PLLC has handled numerous medical malpractice, birth injury and anesthesia error cases and will work with the proper experts to interpret the data and provide insight and testimony as to how the potential mistake occurred.

Anesthesia errors can result in death or brain injury. A medical malpractice lawsuit cannot reverse the medical outcome, but can provide compensation for suffering, future medical expenses, lost income or in-home care.
