Filing a surgical malpractice claim can help you receive money for the various damages you&#8217;ve experienced. In medical malpractice and personal injury cases, there are three primary types of compensation that amount to a total settlement.<\/p><h3>Economic Damages<\/h3><p>Economic damages are the real financial loss you experience due to a surgical error. These numbers are quantifiable and are backed by documents like insurance claims, medical bills, lost wages, and receipts.<\/p><p><strong>Economic damages may include compensation for:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Medical bills and insurance copays<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Prescription medication costs<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Medical device costs<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Costs associated with physical rehabilitation or therapy<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Transportation costs<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Home and childcare costs<\/li><\/ul><h3>Non-Economic Damages<\/h3><p>Non-economic damages account for the more abstract costs associated with your injury. These are non-quantifiable costs, like emotional distress and <a href=\"https:\/\/kpattorney.com\/blog\/what-pain-and-suffering-means-personal-injury-case-boca-raton\/\">pain and suffering<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>Non-economic damages may include compensation for:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Psychological trauma<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Loss of enjoyment of life<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Loss of consortium<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Loss of relationships<\/li><\/ul><h3>Punitive Damages<\/h3><p>It&#8217;s rare for a judge to award <a href=\"https:\/\/kpattorney.com\/personal-injury\/damages\/punitive\/\">punitive damages<\/a> in a surgical mistake lawsuit, but it is possible. Punitive damages are separate from economic and non-economic damages, and judges award this type of compensation only in the more egregious cases of negligent behavior. Punitive damages are &#8220;punishment&#8221; costs meant to deter future misconduct.<\/p><h2>Types of Surgical Errors<\/h2><p>There are several common types of surgical errors. These mistakes affect up to 4,000 American adults annually. Many are left with permanent side effects, chronic pain, and lasting injuries. A significant portion find themselves facing severe disability as a result, unable to return to how things were before. These consequences are far-reaching and can impact every facet of your daily life. It&#8217;s your right to hold the surgeons accountable.<\/p><p>Here are the six most common surgical mistakes.<\/p><h3>1) Anesthesia &amp; Medication Errors<\/h3><p>From administering too much or too little anesthesia during the procedure to failing to provide the proper pain medication or antibiotics post-surgery, medicinal errors are the most common type of surgical mistake. Allergic and adverse reactions to anesthesia are common, and a doctor&#8217;s failure to act to prevent complications can lead to injury or death.<\/p><h3>2) Leaving Foreign Objects Behind<\/h3><p>Sometimes, patients make it through surgery and appear unharmed. They may even begin to heal as expected, only to face sudden and excruciating pain not long after. Upon medical examination, doctors may find that surgical clamps, drains, wound packing, or other items were left inside the body during the procedure. The result is often infection, swelling, and even sepsis.<\/p><h3>3) Wrong Site Surgery<\/h3><p>Imagine you go under anesthesia expecting doctors to correct the ACL in your right knee. Except, when you wake up, your right knee is still damaged and you see a large bandage on your left leg instead. Wrong-site surgeries are, unfortunately, one of the most common surgical mistakes. This is one of the most alarming errors, as you&#8217;re left to face further surgical correction after undergoing significant trauma.<\/p><h3>4) Wrong Procedure Surgery<\/h3><p>You&#8217;re admitted to the hospital for a routine tonsillectomy in hopes of avoiding chronic tonsil stones and throat infections. But you wake up, and your throat feels unbothered\u2013however, your stomach has a large surgical incision. You realize the horror that a doctor has performed the wrong procedure and instead removed your appendix. How does this happen? The answer is pure surgical negligence. This happens due to miscommunication and carelessness.<\/p><h3>5) Wrong Patient Surgery<\/h3><p>Hospitals sometimes mix up patient files or misplace crucial identification documents. The worst can happen when doctors are rushed, in a hurry, and not paying proper attention. You may undergo a surgery that was designated for another patient. This grave mistake happens when a hospital fails to uphold protocol.<\/p><h3>6) Nerve Damage<\/h3><p>Even a split-second loss of attention or a slight slip of the scalpel can result in nerve damage for surgical patients. This can cause permanent loss of feeling, range of motion, a pins and needles sensation in the body part, and more. If your profession depends on optimal physical function, this can be devastating to your career. It can also interfere with daily life activities, like typing, driving, or picking up your children. With millions of nerves in the human body, sometimes it&#8217;s challenging for doctors not to nick one.<\/p><h3>The Consequences of Surgical Errors<\/h3><p>The consequences of these surgical mistakes are vast. In the best-case scenario, patients can recover with minor treatments and further surgical intervention.
