treatment failure

treatment failure /
An operation always poses a certain risk for postoperative complications. In the worst case, even the death of the patient threatens. Unfortunately, there is no 100 percent safety in medicine. But when physicians make faulty diagnoses or surgicians make negligent mistakes, it is a treatment error. The AOK estimates the number of treatment errors at about 190,000 cases per year, with about 10 percent of those affected lost. But not every complication is automatically a treatment error. Only if an inappropriate, neglected, not careful or improper treatment has demonstrably led to damage, it is called a treatment error.

A distinction is made between simple and coarse errors. For simple treatment errors, the patient must prove the error, in case of a gross error, the doctor must prove his innocence. Rough mistakes are actions that appear irresponsible from an objective medical point of view and should not be allowed to subvert a physician who has studied. From a legal point of view, a treatment error does not occur until there has been a demonstrably incorrect act by the doctor that has led to the patient being harmed and the act is demonstrably linked to the damage. Errors in treatment can have civil consequences, such as compensation for pain, but also criminal consequences for the physician. The causes of such mistakes are varied, ranging from overwork, ignorance and lack of experience to greed. (Vb)
