New York Medical Diagnostic Error Attorneys
Diagnostic errors by medical professionals constitute the majority of medical malpractice claims in the United States. Diagnostic error usually falls under one of the following categories:
- Failure to diagnose
- Delay in diagnosis
- Misdiagnosis
Failure to diagnose a condition or a disease is usually the result of a failure to conduct the proper tests or failure to accurately assess or recognize a patient’s symptoms. Failing to diagnose can not only lead to the condition worsening but it can also lead to irreparable physical and psychological harm to the patient. A delay in diagnosis can lead to unnecessary pain and even death. For example, appendicitis, if diagnosed on time, can be treated quite routinely. However, a delay in this diagnosis could lead to death. A delay in the diagnosis of cancer could not only lead to a greater need for more and aggressive therapy and prolonged and intense suffering for the patient, but it could also lead to death.
The misdiagnosis, or incorrect diagnosis, of a medical condition could also lead to an improper course of treatment as well as the pain, suffering, and even death of a patient.
