Misdiagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism

Medical Malpractice Involving Pulmonary Embolism

A pulmonary embolism can result in serious brain injury or wrongful death. Of course, proper medical attention can prevent damage, as long as the symptoms are recognized in time. If they are not, it may be a matter of medical malpractice.

At the Warner Law Office in Wichita, Kansas, we believe that medical errors simply should not happen. Highly trained and highly compensated medical professionals should not make mistakes. When they do, that's negligence. We have more than 20 years of experience that we use to hold people accountable for such negligence.

Failure to Diagnose Pulmonary Embolism

A medical condition of any type, including pulmonary embolism, cannot be treated if it is not recognized. Our team of experienced attorneys will work to hold doctors accountable for medical malpractice. We will hold them accountable for failing to do what they were trained to do.

Improper Treatment of Pulmonary Embolism

While many medical errors involving pulmonary embolism are the result of misdiagnosis, others are simply the result of failing to treat the condition properly. Some examples include:

  • Failure to use the proper blood thinning medication to prevent pulmonary embolism
  • Conducting surgical procedures in which pulmonary embolism is a possible side effect without taking the precautions to prevent it
  • Wrongful death caused by providing the wrong medication to treat pulmonary embolism

We believe that these mistakes are inexcusable. We seek maximum compensation for victims of this type of medical malpractice.

We Truly Understand Medical Malpractice

The legal world and the medical world are very distinct. Medical malpractice is where they come together. We truly understand how they converge because our team includes a lawyer who is also a nurse. This allows us to carefully review both the medical and legal aspects of your case as we pursue the financial compensation you deserve.
