Read on to find out more and contact us to discuss your situation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"What Is\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_A_Medical_Negligence_Claim\"><\/span>What Is A Medical Negligence Claim?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A Medical Negligence Claim is a claim for compensation made by a person (or their next of kin in some instances) who has been injured because of an error made by A Medical Professional,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/hospital-negligence-claims\/\">Private Hospitals<\/a>\u00a0and\/or the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/claims-against-the-hse\/\">HSE<\/a>. It may also be known as a Clinical Negligence Claim.<\/p>\n<p>A Medical Negligence Claim is similar to a <a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/personal-injury-litigation\">Personal Injury Claim<\/a>, although there are differences.<\/p>\n<p>In order to bring a Medical Negligence Claim, a Medical Expert must confirm that medical negligence has, in fact, taken place.<\/p>\n<p>Medical Negligence cases may include misdiagnosis, which gives rise to incorrect or delayed treatment, routine surgical errors, cosmetic surgery errors and injuries that arise during the process of giving birth. An injury or illness that has been made worse because of incorrect treatment or substandard treatment might also give rise to a Medical Negligence Claim.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/birth-injury-claims\">Birth injuries<\/a> occur if a Medical Professional is negligent during the birth process resulting in injury to the mother or the child. Injuries that occur to mothers during birth include 3rd and 4th-degree perineal tears, damage to the spinal nerves during epidural and undiagnosed eclampsia. Such negligence may give rise to a Medical Negligence Claim.<\/p>\n<p>In some Medical Negligence cases, the injury or the full extent of the injury may not be apparent immediately. Sometimes, it can take months for an injury to develop or to be fully realised. It may still be possible to bring a Medical Negligence Claim in this situation.<\/p>\n<p>When you make a Medical Negligence Claim, it is usually brought against the Medical Practitioner who caused the injury, the Hospital where the injury occurred and\/or the HSE. The details of your case will determine who your claim is brought against, and your Medical Negligence Solicitor will guide you on this.<\/p>\n<p>Medical Professionals liable for Medical Negligence Claims include General Practitioners, Surgeons (including Cosmetic Surgeons and Plastic Surgeons), Obstetricians, Gynecologists, Ophthalmologists and Consultants. Both private and public practitioners can be held liable.<\/p>\n<p>Claims may also be taken against Dentists and Orthodontists where they have provided substandard care which results in injury. For more information, please see our Dental Negligence page by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/dental-negligence-claims\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Medical Negligence Claims can also extend to medical products and devices. If a manufacturer has made an error that causes injury, you may be able to make a claim.<\/p>\n<p>Further, if a Chemist or Pharmacist dispenses the wrong medication, resulting in an injury, then you may have an entitlement to compensation.<\/p>\n<p>To find out whether your case is likely to succeed, speak to an experienced Medical Negligence Solicitor.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3300 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/still-life-with-scales-justice-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/still-life-with-scales-justice-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cantillons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/still-life-with-scales-justice-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cantillons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/still-life-with-scales-justice-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Who Can\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Can_Make_A_Medical_Negligence_Claim\"><\/span>Who Can Make A Medical Negligence Claim?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You may be able to bring a Medical Negligence Claim if you have been injured during a medical treatment or procedure if the injury arises from negligence.<\/p>\n<p>If your child was injured as a result of Medical Negligence, you may bring a case on their behalf. Cases can also be brought by the legal guardian of an incapacitated individual.<\/p>\n<p>It does not matter what type of treatment you received as there is no medical treatment that is exempt from Medical Negligence Claims. Therefore, whether you have undergone laser eye surgery, treatment for cancer or a blood transfusion, if you have been injured as a result of negligence, you can make a Medical Negligence Claim.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"What Are\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_the_Statute_Of_Limitations_For_A_Medical_Negligence_Claim_Work\"><\/span>How Does the Statute Of Limitations For A Medical Negligence Claim Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The Statute of Limitations sets out the legal time limit within which a Medical Negligence case must be brought.<br \/>\nIn Ireland, Medical Negligence Claims must be made within 2 years from the day of the injury. There are some exceptions to this, for instance, if the injury was not immediately obvious or you did not know there had been a medical error until a later date. This is known as the date of knowledge, and in this case, the time limit of 2 years will begin from the date you discovered the injury or error.<\/p>\n<p>If you are considering bringing a Medical Negligence Claim, it is essential to start the process as soon as you possibly can.<\/p>\n<p>If your case involves negligent medical care for a child or infant, the time limits laid out by the Statute of Limitations are different. It is possible for a parent or guardian to bring the case on behalf of their child soon after the injury, but you may also wait until the child&#8217;s 18th birthday, at which point the 2-year time limit to complete the claim will apply. It is important to speak to a specialist Medical Negligence Solicitor before deciding on this option, however, as it may affect the type and amount of compensation your child is entitled to.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"What_Are\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Different_Types_Of_Medical_Negligence_Claims\"><\/span>Different Types Of Medical Negligence Claims<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Medical Negligence Claims in Ireland can include a wide range of medical treatments and practices.<\/p>\n<p>To summarise, all injuries and illnesses caused by the negligent action, or inaction, of a Medical Practitioner, Hospital or the HSE may be liable for compensation.<\/p>\n<p>Types of Medical Negligence that we advise and represent at Cantillons Solicitors include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Medical Procedures<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/birth-injury-claims\">Birth injuries<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Birth mismanagement<\/li>\n<li>Cerebral Palsy<\/li>\n<li>Anaesthesia<\/li>\n<li>Orthopaedic<\/li>\n<li>Accident &amp; Emergency<\/li>\n<li>Medication<\/li>\n<li>Pharmacy \/ Prescription Errors \/ incorrect Dosage<\/li>\n<li>General Practitioner (GP)<\/li>\n<li>Gynaecology<\/li>\n<li>Obstetric<\/li>\n<li>Pregnancy mismanagement<\/li>\n<li>Labour mismanagement<\/li>\n<li>Postpartum<\/li>\n<li>Midwifery negligence<\/li>\n<li>Caesarean Section errors or delays in performing the C\u2013Section<\/li>\n<li>Brain Injury<\/li>\n<li>Paediatrics<\/li>\n<li>Erbs Palsy<\/li>\n<li>Shoulder Dystocia<\/li>\n<li>Perineal tears (3 and 4th degree tears)<\/li>\n<li>Stillbirth<\/li>\n<li>Delay or failure to admit to hospital<\/li>\n<li>Allergic Reactions<\/li>\n<li>Cannula Injury<\/li>\n<li>EEG misreading<\/li>\n<li>Informed Consent<\/li>\n<li>Complications following operation<\/li>\n<li>Mental Health<\/li>\n<li>Neurology<\/li>\n<li>Neurosurgery<\/li>\n<li>Pathology<\/li>\n<li>Histopathology<\/li>\n<li>Plastic Surgery<\/li>\n<li>Psychiatry<\/li>\n<li>Radiology<\/li>\n<li>Surgical Claims<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Organ perforation during operation<\/li>\n<li>Bowel perforation<\/li>\n<li>Laceration to organ<\/li>\n<li>Medical Devices<\/li>\n<li>Hip Implants<\/li>\n<li>Breast Implants<\/li>\n<li>Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy<\/li>\n<li>Misdiagnosis<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/cervical-cancer-misdiagnosis-claims\">Cervical Cancer<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Smear misreading<\/li>\n<li>Pathology<\/li>\n<li>Histology<\/li>\n<li>Ear Nose and Throat (ENT)<\/li>\n<li>Retained swabs\/device\/needle<\/li>\n<li>Unexpected neo-natal death<\/li>\n<li>Respiratory Medicine<\/li>\n<li>Infectious Diseases<\/li>\n<li>Urology<\/li>\n<li>Gastroenterology<\/li>\n<li>General Surgery<\/li>\n<li>Vascular Surgery<\/li>\n<li>Hepatitis Infection<\/li>\n<li>Medical Product Liability<\/li>\n<li>Dental Product Liability<\/li>\n<li>DePuy Hips<\/li>\n<li>Hospital-Acquired Infections<\/li>\n<li>Eyes\/Ophthalmic Injuries<\/li>\n<li>Laser Surgery<\/li>\n<li>Delayed Diagnosis Claims<\/li>\n<li>Blood Transfusion<\/li>\n<li>Blood Product Transfusion<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/dental-negligence-claims\">Dental Procedures<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Orthodontic<\/li>\n<li>Cardiology<\/li>\n<li>Colorectal Surgery<\/li>\n<li>Endocrinology<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/cosmetic-surgery-claims\">Cosmetic Surgery<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/cancer-misdiagnosis-claims\">Cancer Misdiagnosis Claims<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Oncology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We also supply advice and representation for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/medical-negligence\/coroners-inquests\/\">Coroner\u2019s Inquests<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Patient Support Groups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Patient Advocacy Groups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"How_Do\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_I_Make_A_Medical_Negligence_Claim_In_Dublin_Ireland\"><\/span>How Do I Make A Medical Negligence Claim In Dublin Ireland?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Find Specialist Medical Negligence Solicitors<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When you are making a Medical Negligence Claim in Ireland, the first step is to find an experienced Medical Negligence Solicitor.<\/p>\n<p>Your Solicitor will work through your case and help you to collect the evidence required to process the claim.

These guidelines replace <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.piab.ie\/eng\/forms-guides\/book-of-quantum.pdf\">The Book of Quantum<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/cantillons.com\/blog\/a-guide-to-the-personal-injury-guidelines\">, which was previously used to calculate compensation in such cases.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The new Guidelines were developed to create transparency and consistency around the compensation awarded to claimants. The Guidelines categorise claims by type, with different categories including (but not limited to):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder<\/li>\n<li>Head Injuries<\/li>\n<li>Neck Injuries<\/li>\n<li>Injuries to internal organs<\/li>\n<li>Burns and Scarring<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each category is broken down into bands according to the severity of the injury and each band has a suggested amount of compensation.
