Anesthesia is the practice of controlled and temporary loss of sensation or consciousness by administering drugs or gases. These drugs and gases work by blocking signals in the nervous system, which prevents the body from experiencing pain during surgical procedures.
Medical malpractice refers to a health care provider’s deviation from accepted standards within the medical industry. Anesthesia malpractice refers to an anesthesiologist’s deviation from accepted standards for administering and monitoring anesthetic medication.
While commonly used across the United States, anesthesia carries considerable risks. Research suggests that one out of every 100,000 patients receiving general anesthesia die. Others suffer serious adverse issues due to allergies or practitioner errors.
Anesthesiologists typically receive anywhere between 12 to 15 years of post-high-school education. This includes undergrad, medical school, an anesthesiology residency, and licensing. You’d expect that after more than a decade of education and training, an anesthesiologist would not make careless mistakes or errors on the job.
Unfortunately, anesthesia errors happen in about 1 out of 133 cases.
Many times, preventable mistakes by these highly-trained professionals are the root cause, including the following:
