Michigan Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer
Spinal Cord Injury
Medical malpractice can cause harm ranging from minimal to severe. When the malpractice leads to a spinal cord injury, it’s life-changing. Injuries to the spine can result in severe pain, loss of sensation, paralysis or even death.
How Can Medical Malpractice Lead to a Spinal Cord Injury?
All too often, a patient sees a doctor for one injury and, due to medical negligence or error, walks away with a far worse injury. A physician can make any number of mistakes that could cause spinal cord injury to a patient, including:
- failure to follow proper fall precaution measures, causing the patient to fall
- failure to diagnose/treat a tumor
- failure to diagnose/treat a stroke
- failure to diagnose/treat a spinal infection
- error in administering a spinal block or spinal anesthetic
- error during orthopedic surgery or neurosurgery
- delayed surgical procedure
- birth injury
