Anesthesia Errors
Serious responsibility, serious injuries
During surgical procedures, the anesthesiologist runs the show. He or she is responsible for monitoring blood pressure and ensuring that neither too much nor too little medication gets to the patient. When something goes wrong during surgery, the result is often low blood pressure or inadequate blood flow caused by an anesthesia mistake. Both of these circumstances can leave a patient severely disabled or even lead to wrongful death.
If you have been injured as the result of anesthesia negligence, seek experienced legal counsel to learn about your options. Contact The Lawrence Firm at 1-800-698-4054.
