Accidents.com is pleased to announce the launch of its Medical Accidents Resource Center, a source of legal and medical information about medical malpractice, birth injury, and brain injury.

Medical Malpractice, sometimes called physician negligence, occurs when a professional health care provider fails to act within the applicable standard of care and causes serious injury or death to the patient. Unless the physician can demonstrate that his or her actions (or inaction) were in accordance with the body of medical opinion, he or she may be held liable for negligent behavior. Surgical negligence, medication errors, anesthesia malpractice, and misdiagnosis are examples of medical malpractice.
Birth injuries can be caused by complications during the pregnancy or delivery compounded by errors on the part of the doctor and medical staff. Serious birth injuries can have devastating lifelong effects for infants. Brain Injury (also known as Traumatic Brain Injury, or TBI) is caused by a blow, jolt, or penetrating injury to the head. Many victims of brain injuries may be eligible for monetary compensation for their injury, damages, and medical costs associated with the injury to the brain if it was caused by another's negligence.
The medical malpractice section of the Medical Accidents Resource Center features general medical malpractice information, a guide to the types of medical malpractice, and information about compensation and damages in medical malpractice cases. The birth injury section offers an overview of birth injuries, a list of the common types of birth injury, including cerebral palsy and Erb’s palsy, and a guide to the legal aspects of birth injury. A guide to brain injuries and traumatic brain injuries and the disabilities that can result, as well as an explanation of the types of brain injury, including anoxic brain injury and hypoxic brain injury, are available on the brain injury page. Each of practice area pages includes verdicts, settlements, class action watches, and official links for site visitors who want to learn more about medical accident law, as well as breaking medical accident news from around the country.
