Mistakes during surgery, such as operating on the wrong body part or leaving instruments inside a patient, can cause severe and lasting harm.
Medication Errors
Prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or failing to recognize harmful drug interactions, can have life-threatening consequences.
Birth Injuries
Errors during childbirth, including improper use of forceps or failure to perform a timely C-section, can result in long-term injuries to the baby or mother.

Incorrect administration of anesthesia can lead to serious complications, including brain damage or death.
