Claiming For Fournier's Gangrene Negligence
If you or a loved one suspect that you have been the victim of medical negligence and are trying to cope with the appalling impact of a fournier's gangrene infection, the first step is to talk to a specialist solicitor.
Investigating the quality of your care
A dedicated medical negligence solicitor will be able to obtain copies of your medical records and carry out an analysis of the quality of your medical care.
Fournier's gangrene is a medical emergency with shocking implications for the patient's long-term health and physical integrity. Failings such as missing symptoms, diagnosis delays, examination delays and treatment delays can all mean the difference between a reasonable recovery and long-term disability.
Your specialist solicitor would have access to the best medical experts who can undertake a meticulous examination of the way in which your infection was managed and cared for by your medical professionals.
Recovering your financial losses and recognising your pain
If it is found that your care has been substandard and that it has led to, or contributed to, you suffering a worse outcome than should have been the case with an acceptable standard of care, a further assessment will be made of the impact of that negligence on you and your life.
This will look at whether or not your ability to work has been affected and, if so, the loss of earnings which you have suffered and are likely to suffer in the future as a result of the negligence.
It will also consider any treatment, equipment, care or household adaptations that have been necessitated by those symptoms which you would not now be suffering but for the negligent care.
A fournier's gangrene infection can be a devastating and life-changing illness, necessitating intensive care and possibly triggering sepsis, further undermining the patient's well-being. It can compromise physical integrity, bowel function, sexual function and threaten the patient's life if it is allowed to develop unchecked.
Not surprisingly, the psychological impact can often be overwhelming.
Your pain and suffering would also be taken into account in compiling your claim.
