Traumatic Brain Injuries

Understanding the Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries Due to New York Medical Malpractice

A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is a very serious type of personal injury that could be caused by New York medical malpractice. There are, unfortunately, many ways in which a TBI could be caused by medical errors, omissions, mistakes, and other issues due to the negligence of a healthcare provider. These instances of New York medical malpractice will impact a victim for the rest of his or her life, even minor mistakes. This can be catastrophic for a family and life-changing for all involved.

In a medical malpractice context, there are many different ways in which New York medical malpractice could cause a traumatic brain injury. For instance, here are some of the common ways in which medical errors and negligence could result in serious medical malpractice:

Anesthesia errors – when anesthesia errors such as overdoses or failing to properly incubate a patient during a surgery occur, it could result in permanent injuries to the brain or even wrongful death.
Prescription errors – medications and drugs are very strong and meant to induce a specific reaction in the body. When these medications are overused, overdoses, or otherwise improperly administered, it could result in catastrophic injuries or wrongful death to a patient.
Surgical errors – mistakes in slipping with a tools or knife could cause serious personal injuries including a brain injury.
Excessive bleeding due to surgery – causing an excessive wound or injury during surgery could result in horrific and catastrophic injuries because of the failure to have enough blood.
Dropping a patient during a transfer on his or her head.
Failing to guard against a patient who is a fall risk.

If a healthcare provider causes a TBI due to serious New York medical malpractice, they should be held liable for this injuries.
