Anesthesia Mistakes

Anesthesia mistakes can result in serious complications

Anesthesia complications include hypoxic injuries, anaphylaxis (allergy), toxicities and failures to monitor. Anesthesiologists are responsible for the ABCs: airway, breathing and circulation. A failure to monitor from induction through extubation puts patients at risk.

Close monitoring of patients’ vital signs and careful, constant observation of patients are also essential. Serious patient injuries result when health care providers administer incorrect dosages or the wrong medications. They also result when patients experience adverse reactions to medications and health care providers are not watching closely. The health care staff is responsible for injuries to patients that occur under these circumstances.

Ohio medical malpractice law demands experience, resources

Where the science of anesthesiology is concerned, even a milligram-sized mistake could mean serious complications or death. Despite such advancements in medicine over the past decades, the process of anesthetization remains delicate.
