Post-operative care refers to medical monitoring and care a patient receives following a surgical procedure. The primary objective of post-operative care is to ensure the patient heals and recovers properly, monitor for post-operative complications (e.g., infection), and treat any complications that arise. Our malpractice lawyers see cases on a monthly basis where the claim is the failure of the doctors and nurses to properly monitor the patient after a procedure that results in injury or death.<\/p>\n

Many complications can arise after surgery. The complications a patient may suffer following a surgery can be individualized. So treatment for postoperative complications differs and is based upon, among other things, the patient’s age, overall health, medical history, extent of the disease, type of surgery performed, and individual tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies.<\/p>\n

If you or a loved one has suffered an injury as a result of a postoperative complication and you think a doctor or a nurse is to blame, contact the lawyers at Miller & Zois for help. We can review your medical records and help you determine whether or not medical malpractice may have occurred. Call us today at 800-553-8082<\/strong> or request an online consultation<\/a>.<\/p>\n
