What Happens?

The top two causes of death in the US are heart disease and cancer, but the third leading cause of death in the country may surprise you. It is medical mistakes.

On average, 250,000 lose their lives each year due to the mistakes medical professionals make. Some estimates say that number is as high as 440,000 people. The thing is this – those are just the fatalities. Around 10-20 times more people survive these mistakes and must live with the consequences.

Some of the more common ways in which medical mistakes occur are as follows:

  • Errors made when diagnosing patients are the most devastating according to Johns Hopkins researchers. Diagnostic mistakes can lead to delayed treatment, or even no treatment at all, for a patient. Not only does this impact a person’s health, but their finances as well.
  • Many mistakes are made when it comes to giving patients medications, both inside a hospital and outside of a medical facility. These mistakes can include not giving the correct medication, giving the wrong dosage of a medication, or not giving a patient their medication at all.
  • We have long known that healthcare-acquired infections are a major problem. Around one in 30 hospital patients in the hospital acquires an infection every day.
  • Surgical mistakes can include the major “never events” such as operating on the wrong body part or even the wrong patient. These are the ones we see on TV shows, but often the mistake is not so dramatic but can cause just as much harm.

We see so many medical professionals throughout the year, from family doctors and ER staff, to our dentist and eye doctor.

Are we sure they are all performing at a high level of care?
