San Diego Anesthesia Malpractice Lawyer

Representation for Anesthesia Malpractice Victims

Surgery and medical treatments and operations require anesthesia so the patient feels no pain during the treatment. Anesthesia can be general, meaning the patient is taken to a state of drug-induced loss of consciousness, or it can be local, meaning that only a certain area of the patient’s body is made numb to the that would otherwise be experienced pain.

Administering, maintaining, and bringing a patient out of anesthesia is a complicated process that should only be handled by medical professionals. Unfortunately, even a person who is trained in anesthesiology may make a mistake that leads to injury to the patient, leaving him or her with a severe and permanent injury, profound brain damage, or even an injury so severe that it leads to death.

An anesthesiologist and his or her staff must follow specific and standard rules and protocol in all aspects of anesthesiology; their failure to do so may lead to severe injuries or death.
