A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen to the brain ruptures or is blocked by a clot or ruptures. A stroke kills brain cells, making it a leading cause for disability and the fifth most common cause of death in the U.S. If you or a loved one has experienced stroke complications due to a doctor’s negligence, call a seasoned medical malpractice attorney. Our Michigan stroke medical malpractice lawyers could help.
When a patient experiences a stroke and it is misdiagnosed by a physician, it may be considered stroke medical malpractice. The doctor and medical staff are trained to recognize the symptoms of a stroke so immediate action can be taken to minimize damage to the brain. Stroke symptoms include:
When a patient who’s exhibiting stroke symptoms arrives at the hospital, the doctor should order a CT scan or an MRI to determine whether or not the individual is experiencing a stroke and what type it is. Diagnosing the type of stroke is important because medications intended for one kind of stroke may have negative effects on another.
Even after testing, a doctor could misdiagnose the condition. Misdiagnosis might involve failing to diagnose the type of stroke or diagnosing the stroke as a completely different condition, such as hypoglycemia or seizures. If the stroke is misdiagnosed, the patient will not receive treatment and medication in a timely manner.
Medical malpractice can lead to tremendous harm as well as financial hardships for a stroke victim, who could suffer from loss of wages on top of expensive medical and hospital bills. A stroke medical malpractice lawyer in Michigan could help pursue compensation to cover these damages.
