Specialist Necrotising Fasciitis Negligence Compensation Solicitors
Medical negligence compensation claims are extremely complex, especially those relating to necrotising fasciitis. Contact Glynns Solicitors if you think that you may have a claim.
The complexity of necrotising fasciitis
Necrotising fasciitis is a life-threatening soft-tissue infection of considerable complexity. Although it often commences in one of the limbs or the abdominal area, it can occur anywhere in the body. External signs are not always obvious and early symptoms of pain, swelling and redness can be misdiagnosed as a less severe condition. It is also a fast-moving infection and the extent of its spread is not always clear.
However, such is the potential impact of this appalling illness, that early diagnosis and emergency treatment are absolutely crucial to the patient achieving the best possible outcome.
The complexity of a necrotising fasciitis compensation claim.
In order to establish whether or not an individual has experienced negligent medical care, the best medical experts are required to carry out a thorough analysis of the patient's medical records. A meticulous investigation of the actions of the medical professionals involved in the patient's care is undertaken, checking to see whether those actions were appropriate to the needs of the patient or whether they might be deemed to have been negligent.
If it is found that the patient has, indeed, been the victim of negligent medical care, it is necessary to assess the ways in which the negligence has affected the patient and the impact on their quality of life, physical integrity, health, well-being and finances. Given that the impact of this shocking infection can vary in both nature and extent form one patient to another, this assessment is not an easy process.
