Negligencia médica

Comprender la negligencia médica

La negligencia médica se produce cuando un profesional sanitario se desvía de las normas de práctica aceptadas, provocando daños al paciente. Puede tratarse de errores de diagnóstico, tratamiento, postratamiento o gestión sanitaria.

Tipos comunes de negligencia médica

  • Errores quirúrgicos: Realizar procedimientos incorrectos u operar en el lugar equivocado.
  • Errores de medicación: Prescribir un medicamento o una dosis equivocados.
  • Errores de anestesia: Administrar cantidades incorrectas de anestesia, lo que provoca complicaciones.
  • Lesiones en el parto: Daños al bebé o a la madre durante el parto por negligencia.
  • Muerte por negligencia: Resultados mortales debidos a errores médicos evitables o a una atención negligente.
  • Diagnóstico erróneo o tardío: No identificar una afección con prontitud, lo que conduce a la progresión de la enfermedad.

¿Qué es un diagnóstico erróneo?

Un diagnóstico incorrecto, o erróneo, es lo que comúnmente se conoce como diagnóstico equivocado. El resultado de un diagnóstico erróneo puede ir desde lesiones leves a lesiones graves y potencialmente mortales, e incluso la muerte. Un diagnóstico erróneo puede dar lugar a un tratamiento equivocado, a la prescripción de medicamentos equivocados o a un tratamiento que empeore el estado del paciente.

Los diagnósticos erróneos se producen cuando los médicos no prestan toda su atención a los pacientes, lo que aumenta la probabilidad de que se ignoren o malinterpreten signos clínicos potencialmente peligrosos. También pueden producirse diagnósticos erróneos porque los pacientes no revelan todos sus síntomas. Muchos diagnósticos erróneos afectan a la urgencia con que se realizan las pruebas de laboratorio, lo que puede tener efectos perjudiciales para el paciente. Los diagnósticos erróneos también pueden llevar a que se prescriban fármacos equivocados, un tratamiento erróneo o un tratamiento que acabe empeorando aún más el estado del paciente.

¿Qué es un diagnóstico tardío?

Un diagnóstico retrasado es cuando se produce un desfase entre el diagnóstico y el tratamiento, que causa complicaciones o aumenta la gravedad del estado del paciente. Un diagnóstico retrasado es, técnicamente, correcto, pero no se produce a tiempo y puede tener efectos adversos en la salud del paciente. Una de las razones más frecuentes de los diagnósticos retrasados es que el médico no hace una historia clínica completa del paciente. Algunos diagnósticos retrasados han resultado peligrosos, e incluso mortales, como el retraso en el diagnóstico de infartos, infecciones y cáncer.

¿Qué es un fallo de diagnóstico?

Un fallo en el diagnóstico significa que se ha dejado sin tratar la enfermedad real, lo que también puede causar lesiones graves o incluso la muerte. No diagnosticar una enfermedad relacionada, o no relacionada, también puede provocar lesiones graves.

Consecuencias de la negligencia médica

Las víctimas pueden sufrir enfermedades prolongadas, incapacidad permanente, traumas emocionales o cargas económicas debidas a gastos médicos adicionales y pérdida de ingresos.

Being an attorney myself I can tell you which firms are the real deal and which are not. ACTS law is an excellent firm with excellent attorneys. I want to signal out one attorney in particular - Allyson Ostrowski. Of all the attorneys I have met in my career she is easily one of the most intelligent, dedicated, and hard working. She is an exceptionally strong advocate and consistently achieves outstanding results for all of her clients - can't recommend her and ACTS law enough.
Our ACTS Law, Encino experience was definitely great and exceeded our expectations, being this was our first time seeking consultation on a possible malpractice case. The attorneys and staff were very professional, knowledgeable, thorough and sensitive to our situation. From the first contact all the way through the process they made us feel comfortable in the way they were handling our case. We really appreciated how they were in constant communication with us never leaving us to wonder if they were working on our case. We were very pleased with the outcome and would definitely recommend to family, friends and anyone in need of knowledgeable, professional attorneys. Thanks Attorney Ed, Bruce and your clerks Art and Brandon.

Ms Tia Kavanagh have been very helpful and transparent with me dealing with my case by following up with my phone calls and voicemails. She deserves the recognition and I highly recommend others to pursue her for anything… Thanks!
Tia Kavanagh, Paralegal
This Law Firm is by far the best. This paralegal specifically is the kindest person I have ever met. They answered each question thoroughly and precisely. They treated me with respect and dignity. They took time to explain my case and breakdown everything I did not understand. I wish Google review had more stars because it’s only appropriate to give this person double the amount. Please please take into consideration to ensure they receive a standing ovation tomorrow at work when everyone walks in. Tia Kavanagh is a blessing and ACTS is lucky to have Tia. Sincerely Michael Anthony Altamirano. 1-14-26 please consider a raise for this individual. Thank you
Alin Ghayvandian was not only a spectacular lawyer on my behalf, but a caring human being ( a rare quality in lawyers) who never made me wait for answers to any of my queries. I come from a family of lawyers. All of them could learn something from this lady. And by the way, the case was settledto my satisfaction. !
I recently had the pleasure after I was rear ended to work with Acts law and the firm took care of me from start to finish. I was introduced to acts law by referral to Manibog law who works with Acts law. Gilda helped me navigate through the whole process with ease as this was my first time in an accident and going through this process. She showed amazing professionalism and attention to detail she shows compassion and understanding always ensured if I had any questions she was always available and she sure went above and beyond and was an excellent point of contact. Gilda and the team was friendly and very knowledgeable especially when I had questions. Any appointments I had to go to she and the team made sure I was taken care of, The team always made me feel like they were family and I wasn’t just another case they took on. Once the final closing of my case was submitted I was very pleased and happy with the outcome. I will 100% refer acts law to anyone I come across as my expectations were exceeded. If you’re looking for a reputable law firm with compassion Acts law is a must, their excellent service provided was phenomenal.
