Anesthesia and Brain Injury

Millions of patients undergo various types of anesthesia during surgery. Anesthesia may be performed by endotracheal intubation, epidural anesthesia and local anesthesia. There are variants of each type of anesthesia which can be safely and carefully delivered. However, the failure to take proper actions during anesthesia and the failure to properly monitor and correct problems during anesthesia can be anesthesia malpractice. Malpractice and anesthesia malpractice can be caused either by anesthesiologists who are doctors or certified registered nurse anesthetists. The are other circumstances when surgeons also become responsible for anesthesia malpractice if the surgeon fails to diagnose the patient’s complication while under anesthesia. Complications from anesthesia malpractice can include brain damange, death, persistent vegetative state, paralysis, stroke, nerve damage and other serious problems.

Malpractice can occur when the anesthesia team fails to recognize failing heart rates which are clearly monitored with sophistocated monitoring equipment as well as the failure to take to proper corrective measures to deal with failing heart rates, blood pressures or oxyenation problems. Fortunately, there are many medical advances to save patients from death and injury when anesthesia problems are promptly identified and promptly corrected.
