New Jersey Anesthesia Error Lawyers

Anesthesia can be used in a general or local capacity, helping to eliminate pain from a patient who is undergoing or recovering from surgery. Because this type of medication can be dangerous if administered in an improper fashion, specialized doctors called anesthesiologists are solely responsible for this aspect of treatment.

Unfortunately, anesthesia can sometimes cause more harm than good if the physician is negligent in its distribution. If you or someone you love has been injured due to a preventable anesthesia-related incident, you should speak with an experienced attorney right away regarding your case. For a free case evaluation, call the New Jersey anesthesia error lawyers of Levinson Axelrod, P.A., at 800-346-5529 today.

Anesthesia Error Injuries

The following injuries are associated with anesthesia errors:

  • Damage to the trachea or injury to surrounding areas due to intubation mistakes
  • Inadequate oxygen supply (asphyxia)
  • Heart attack or stroke
  • Birth defects
  • Permanent brain damage, including traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injury, leading to paralysis
  • Coma
  • Wrongful death

Because these consequences are so devastating, it is imperative that the negligent party be held accountable for his or her irresponsible medical actions by taking appropriate legal action. If a favorable result is obtained, you may be able to gain financial compensation to help recover from any physical, emotional or monetary damages to you or your family that resulted from the anesthesia error.
