Undiagnosed
The misdiagnosis of a patient is among the most common types of medical malpractice. It happens a lot each year and can have devastating consequences, including the need for unnecessary surgery and long hospital stays and unnecessarily aggressive treatment. In some instances, a misdiagnosis may even cause death.
To prove that there was a malpractice, it must be demonstrated that the doctor owed obligations to the patient and violated this obligation by failing to recognize the injury or illness correctly. In the majority of cases, the inability of the doctor to meet the standard of care is proven by an expert's opinion. This can be a medical professional with extensive knowledge of the type of illness in question. The expert must also show that the physician did not properly include the disease in the list of differential diagnosis by using methods like asking additional questions, making further observations, or ordering more tests as part of the diagnosis procedure.
A plaintiff also needs to prove that the injuries caused by the misdiagnosis were the direct result of the breach of duty. This usually means establishing actual damages, including future and past medical expenses, lost income, suffering and pain, shortened life expectancy and other damages. The victim must bring the lawsuit within the statute of limitations which typically is two or three years from the date of the harm.
