What are Surgical negligence claims?

In Ireland, the criteria for establishing surgical negligence involve demonstrating that the care received was below the standard that would reasonably be expected from a medical professional or institution. This encompasses not only the actions of individual healthcare providers but also the systemic processes and safety measures upheld by the hospital.

For a surgical negligence claim to be substantiated, it must be proven that the negligence directly resulted in harm or injury. Mere existence of negligence is not enough; the causative link between the negligence and the injury must be established with a reasonable degree of medical certainty.

Catastrophic Injuries as a Result of Surgical Malpractice

Hospital negligence can lead to serious, life-altering injuries that can affect all aspects of a patient’s life. Such injuries may result from a variety of failings within the hospital setting, including:

  • Inadequate sterilisation procedures leading to infection
  • Errors in administering medication or dosages
  • Surgical errors or operating on the wrong body part
  • Insufficient monitoring of patient vital signs
  • Failure to act on test results or delayed referrals
  • Poor communication between medical staff leading to mishandled patient care
  • Inadequate discharge instructions or follow-up care
