Anesthesia Errors

Anesthesia errors refer to mistakes made during the administration of anesthesia, which is used to keep patients pain-free during surgery. These errors can include giving the wrong dosage, failing to monitor a patient's vital signs, or not recognizing allergic reactions. Such mistakes can lead to serious complications, including brain damage or even death. In medical malpractice law, if a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted standards of care regarding anesthesia, and this causes harm to the patient, they may be held legally responsible for medical malpractice.
