Failure to Diagnose Heart Attack

When Heart Attack Symptoms Are Misdiagnosed

A physician's failure to make a correct diagnosis of the symptoms of heart attack can support a claim for personal injury or wrongful death damages under Ohio law. To learn about your legal rights if you suspect negligent misdiagnosis of a heart attack in your family, contact a trial lawyer at Greene & Eisen in Cleveland for a free consultation.

There are many reasons why a doctor might miss the signs of an impending heart attack, and many of those reasons represent violations of recognized standards of care, depending on the specific facts of your case.

A physician might fail to order a full cardiac workup when a patient presents with chest pain. A doctor might confuse heart attack symptoms with indigestion, heartburn or gastric ulcer. Sometimes a doctor won't consider the possibility of a heart attack because the patient appears too young or physically fit to match the profile of common heart attack victims. Misdiagnosis under these conditions is especially common in the failure to diagnose heart attacks in apparently healthy women.

It's not enough to show that your doctor missed the signs of an impending heart attack. We also need to prove through medical experts that the failure to make an accurate diagnosis resulted from a failure to observe recognized standards of care. Additionally, we need to prove a causal link between this failure and the harm to the patient.

With experience in complex medical malpractice cases that goes back to 1976, the attorneys of Greene & Eisen work with nationally prominent cardiologists, emergency medicine specialists, and primary care physicians to make sure that we can satisfy our burden of proof on your liability and damages claims. We limit our caseload to make sure that every client we work with can benefit from our careful attention and thorough approach to developing and presenting your case.
