Negligence In Diagnosing Or Treating Heart Conditions

The human heart can keep pumping for 100 years, but like any organ, a compromised heart will eventually fail. Surgeons, cardiac specialists, and other physicians can be held accountable for failing to diagnose serious heart conditions or mismanagement of care for cardiac patients.

Medical Malpractice In Cardiac Care And Diagnosis

There are numerous scenarios in which the negligence of medical professionals can be linked to death or medical complications:

  • Failure to diagnose atrial fibrillation (AFib) and other heart defects
  • Failure to diagnose an evolving heart attack or myocardial infarction (MI)
  • Failure to diagnose coronary aneurysms and pulmonary embolisms
  • Mismanagement during cardiovascular surgery
  • Negligent placement of cardiac stents, resulting in patients bleeding out
  • Mismanagement of chronic heart failure and other ongoing conditions

Our medical team has obtained notable recoveries in medical malpractice, including failure to diagnose correctable heart defects or treatable cardiac conditions. We are skilled in deciphering medical records, including EKGs and other electronic data that indicated heart problems.
