Pediatric Malpractice By New York Doctors

Medical Malpractice Mistakes

Children rely on their parents to keep them safe. Parents rely on medical professionals to provide their children with the care they need for their health and well-being. Sadly, some medical professional fail to uphold their duty of care to their young patients, and the results can be devastating.

Serious injuries to children can lead to life-long expenses. Many of the children who have suffered from pediatric malpractice require expensive medical treatment, rehabilitative therapy, and professional care. They may require this care for the rest of their lives.

Instances of pediatric malpractice are often due to an error in diagnosis. This can happen because proper tests were not ordered, the results of a test were misread, or symptoms were ignored. Most cases of pediatric malpractice involve emergency room physician, nurses, or other hospital staff when proper specialists have not been consulted and care is being rendered by physicians who are inexperienced in the care of children.

Common causes of pediatric malpractice include:

Anesthesia errors
Craniosynostois
Deformational plagiocephaly
Emergency room errors
Failure to diagnose
Failure to treat respiratory distress
Medication errors
Misdiagnosis
Nursing errors
Surgical errors
