A Misdiagnosed Stroke Can Have Serious Repercussions

Strokes require prompt medical attention if the victim is to have the best chance of recovery. Unfortunately, physicians make mistakes and misdiagnose the signs of a stroke, leading to delays in care that can be fatal or cause lasting injury.

There are two types of strokes:

  • Bleeding strokes (aneurysm)
  • Clot strokes

Symptoms that should lead a doctor to conduct tests for a stroke include a severe headache. The acronym FAST is also very useful to remember:

  • Facial drooping – often one side of the face will droop uncontrollably
  • Arm weakness – inability to raise the arm
  • Speech difficulty – slurring, otherwise difficult to understand speech
  • Time – Time is of the essence; secure emergency medical care as soon as possible

When a stroke is detected in a timely fashion, steps such as administering the clot-busting drug TPA (tissue plasminogen activator) can be taken. If you or a loved one were injured by a physician’s misdiagnosis of a stroke, our firm can help you fight for the compensation you will need.
