What is failed abortion negligence?
The first seven weeks of pregnancy is the normal timeframe in which the difficult decision to abort is made. Most abortion procedures take place without issue. However, occasionally problems do arise which can lead to injuries or a failed abortion. The method of pregnancy termination largely depends on which stage the pregnancy is at. Both surgical and medical abortions are performed under a local anaesthetic. Failed abortion negligence can include:
- Lack of informed consent from a patient
- Unwanted birth
- Failure to identify failed or partial abortion
- Failure to detect infection at a follow-up check
- Injury to the uterus or cervix
WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE?
You are entitled to make a claim against anyone who, during the abortion process, you think has acted negligently towards you. They may be the physicians who advised or operated on you, the nurses who were directly or indirectly engaged in your aftercare, and other medical experts. You may be able to lodge a claim against the doctor who conducted the unsuccessful abortion procedure.
