Anesthesia Errors

While anesthesia is essential for modern surgery, it requires the constant, undivided attention of highly trained professionals. When an anesthesiologist or CRNA fails to properly monitor vital signs, miscalculates a dosage, or ignores signs of patient distress during Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) or in the recovery room (PACU), the results are often catastrophic. Because the body is in such a vulnerable state, anesthesia negligence frequently leads to permanent brain damage, respiratory failure, or death. These articles provide critical information on the standards governing anesthesia providers in Pennsylvania and how our firm utilizes medical expertise to seek justice for patients harmed by errors in the operating suite.

Failure to Monitor Vital Signs During General Anesthesia

Learn how we fight for those injured by medical neglect.
