Anesthesia Injuries

Cleveland Anesthesia Error Attorney

When a patient is administered anesthesia during a surgical procedure, the person must be monitored. When a nurse, surgeon, technician or other medical professional fails to respond to a patient’s signs of distress, serious injury or death can occur. Sadly, an anesthesia injury often results in a persistent vegetative state or other coma. This is irreversible damage that can affect an entire family. At the Mellino Law Firm LLC, we can help you and your loved ones through this devastating time.

• Local anesthesia
• Spinal anesthesia
• Epidural anesthesia
• Delay of proper intubation
• Failure to closely monitor
• Failure to perform resuscitation
