Medical errors, often described as medical malpractice in legal terms, can cause death in many ways, including:
Many times, deaths occur suddenly and unexpectedly in what seem to be low-risk hospitalizations. This is generally due to a failure on doctor’s part to properly recognize significant risk factors. Sadly, patients often check in for routine procedures, and either never check out or are sent home with imminent threats to their life that result in death shortly after.
