Medical Malpractice can occur in any area of medicine in which a patient is injured as a result of poor medical treatment. The term "medical malpractice" refers to a health care provider's failure, either due to negligence or error, to treat a patient in accordance with the required standard of care, thus causing a patient to suffer harm. Situations that may indicate medical malpractice include brain injuries, birth/infant injuries, cerebral palsy, cancer cases, missed diagnosis, general doctor/hospital errors, medication errors, defective drugs or medical devices, surgical error including wrong-site surgery, and nursing home abuse.
