Surgical Errors Can Be Traced Back To Failure To Monitor

The weeks, days and hours leading up to surgery can be nerve wracking for any patient. Most patients remind themselves that surgeons are highly trained and educated medical professionals who will follow the standard of care before, during and after surgery. Additionally, most patients also know that there is a medical team in the operating room assisting the surgeon and keeping a watchful eye on the patient.

As a patient or as the family member of a patient who was injured during surgery due to being improperly monitored, it is very natural to feel confusion and anger. With so much knowledge and so many people in the room, how did this mistake ever happen? At Breslin & Breslin, P.A., serving Bergen County, we work with highly qualified medical experts to get to the bottom of this and find you an answer. If you were injured or if a loved one died due to failure to properly monitor during surgery, call us at 201-546-5881 to arrange a free consultation.

We Uncover The Facts To Secure A Successful Resolution For You

Our medical malpractice lawyers consult with top medical experts to uncover the facts and understand what exactly occurred in the operating room. We obtain detailed analysis to determine if:

Our law firm has been in practice for more than 80 continuous years, and we have obtained many successful verdicts and settlements on behalf of our injured clients, including those injured due to surgical errors. We have experience handling many types of situations where a surgeon, physician or other medical staff failed to properly monitor a patient during surgery, including the following:

  • Failing to properly monitor the administration of anesthesia

  • Failing to recognize when the patient is in distress
  • Failing to monitor the patient’s recovery
