How to Prove a Medical 误诊 Case

In 伊利诺斯州, four elements are necessary to prove medical malpractice.

  1. A professional relationship existed at the time of misdiagnosis. If you complain about stomach pains to a doctor friend at a cocktail party and he says it could be indigestion, you will not have a malpractice claim against him if you later discover it is an ulcer. You and the party in question must have had an official relationship for you to have a case.
  2. The medical professional breached his/her duties of care. A physician has a responsibility to properly assess symptoms, 订单测试, 推荐专家, 解释测试结果, and narrow down the most likely options through a proven system of elimination. Any action or failure to act that falls short of a doctor’s duties to a patient could be negligence.
  3. The diagnosis error caused the injuries. If a doctor tells a patient he has ulcers when he actually has chronic indigestion, 他不会因这个错误而受苦, so this would not be an option for a medical misdiagnosis case. The mistake must be the cause of the damages in question, not the condition itself or other unrelated factors.
  4. You suffered in some way because of the misdiagnosis. Finally, you need proof the diagnosis mistake caused you damages. Damages may include physical injury or illness, 预后恶化, 生活质量下降, 痛苦和折磨, 工资损失, 等.
