MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE CLAIMS – INSTRUCT A SPECIALIST

        Epilepsy Medical Negligence Claim

        Epilepsy or “seizure disorder” as it is sometimes referred to as, is a condition affecting the nervous system which causes sufferers to have seizures. These seizures are usually categorised as either partial or generalised.

        There are around 40 types of epilepsy and they all have different effects upon the sufferer, from partial symptoms such as twitching or déjà-vu, to generalised symptoms such as loss of consciousness, stiffening of the body and uncontrollable jerking movements.

        Epilepsy Misdiagnosis

        The drugs used to treat epilepsy known as Anti-Epileptic Drugs (AEDs) can have very serious side effects. Unfortunately, these drugs are sometimes prescribed to the wrong people. Patients with migraines or other minor problems are sometimes diagnosed with epilepsy and go on to take AEDs which have serious effects on their health and cause great stress to them and their families.

        Those who have been correctly diagnosed can also be negligently treated. Doctors may give patients a dosage or combination of AEDs which is dangerous considering other underlying health problems that they may have. Taking a many different AEDs can halt someone’s development both educationally and personally, so negligent epilepsy diagnosis is extremely serious.

        Claiming Compensation

        Anyone who has been affected by medical negligence relating to epilepsy should get in touch with a special medical negligence solicitor as soon as possible. You may be entitled to claim compensation for the suffering such negligence has caused in which case we would be able to help claim the full and fair award you are entitled to.

          Blood disorder problems and compensation claims

          Haematology is the specialist area of medicine which is concerned with blood disorders. As blood contains three types of cells which serve different functions, it’s important that haematologists give the right blood cells to a patient. If a mistake is made or the appropriate treatment isn’t given, major health problems can occur.

          Blood is made up of red cells, white cells and platelets. Red cells take oxygen away from the lungs to be used in all parts of the body. There is also a protein found in red blood cells, known as haemoglobin. If a patient has less red blood cells than they should have, then they could be anaemic, i.e. Have an iron deficiency. Anaemia could make a patient’s body more susceptible to infections or diseases, so doctors need to ensure that any signs of infection are diagnosed and treated.

          White blood cells provide the antibodies which allow your body to fight infection while providing you with immunity against diseases. If these cells are lacking, then there is a higher risk of a patient getting an infection, as their body can’t fight it off. A haematologist will be aware of this and understand how to treat any underlying problems so they can be diagnosed and treated.

          Platelets are small fragments of cells which stick against any damaged blood cells and help your blood to clot so that you can stop bleeding. If there’s a problem and your blood doesn’t clot however, this can result in either excessive bleeding or blood that’s too thick and causes clots within the body.

          A haematologist should be aware of whether blood is clotting normally in a patient, and it’s a haematologist’s responsibility to ensure they determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment once it’s started.

          As the care and treatment of blood disorder problems is so complex, it’s important that a haematologist or health care professional take extra care to treat an individual accordingly. Mistakes can happen and any drugs given have to be monitored so as to prevent ‘over treating’ the medical condition.

          If you or a loved one believe that you have suffered negligence in your treatment for a blood disorder problem, then our expert medical negligence team can give you the legal advice and peace of mind you need to seek the compensation that you deserve.

            District Nurse Medical Negligence

            District nurses are the senior nurses who manage, care and work with teams of community nurses within the National Health Service. If you believe that you have suffered as a result of being misdiagnosed or mistreated by a district nurse, you may be eligible for compensation if you make a medical or clinical negligence claim.

            Unsatisfactory care from a nurse, whether it’s yourself or a loved one, can be a traumatic and distressing experience. While many nurses are dedicated health professionals who provide the best care for patients, due to the high numbers of patients they see, mistakes can sometimes happen. Some patients are extremely vulnerable and aren’t capable of looking after themselves, so require specialist care. If these needs aren’t met, then errors can occur and sometimes prove fatal.

            In these cases, accountability for a patient’s basic care is a requirement. Cases of nursing negligence could involve being administered incorrect drugs or failing to give patients the nutrition and hydration they need. Ignoring vital signs, failing to report any concerns to a doctor or not providing the right nursing records are all examples of medical negligence.

            How do I seek compensation for a district nurse negligence claim?

            If you feel that either yourself or one of your relatives should get compensation for any substandard medical treatment you received when in the care of nurses, you should specialist medical negligence solicitors.

            Medical negligence can be a distressing experience and a specialist solicitor can use their knowledge and experience to handle these claims. Specialist solicitors will give you and your loved ones peace of mind after your distressing experience, so increasing your chances of getting the compensation that you deserve.
