It is important to realize that patients are weak and often medically vulnerable following (even minor) surgery. A person may react to surgery medication in a serious way — a complication after surgery can be injurious or even fatal if it goes unnoticed. This is something medical professionals are supposed to realize and account for. We at Davis & Davis understand the seriousness of postoperative complications and are ready to fight for you if you or a loved one has been injured due to postoperative complications. Contact a Houston, Texas postoperative complications lawyer from our legal team today to schedule your free initial consultation with our firm.

Postoperative Complications Lawyer in Houston, Texas

Postoperative complications are, unfortunately, not uncommon. That said, in many cases, they are preventable. If you or a loved one was harmed because of avoidable postoperative complications, you may have a valid medical malpractice claim. A Houston, Texas surgical error lawyer from our firm can help you effectively navigate the claims process in pursuit of your rightful compensation.

Common Types of Postoperative Complications

Unfortunately, there are a wide array of postoperative complications that can arise. In many cases, these complications can have significant, if not deadly impacts on injured patients. We at Davis & Davis have extensive experience with these issues, including:

  • Postoperative infection
  • Postoperative thiamine deficiency and Wernicke encephalopathy
  • Complications from recovery
  • Medication errors
  • Coma or brain damage
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Aneurism, pulmonary embolism, and heart attack
  • Severe bleeding
  • Organ damage
  • Nicked arteries and vital organs
  • Amputation of wrong limb or body part
  • Foreign objects left in the body

To win a claim against a medical professional, you must demonstrate that you were harmed because the surgeon fell beneath the accepted medical standard of care. Essentially, this means that the medical professional prescribed a line of treatment that an otherwise reasonable physician would not have, causing you to incur significant damages as a result.
