What is a Cardiac Negligence

The term cardiac simply means 'related to the heart' and cardiology refers to dealing with disorders of the heart.

Common conditions include:

  • high blood pressure (hypertension)
  • ischaemic heart disease, including angina and heart attacks (myocardial infarction)
  • abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
  • left heart failure (pulmonary oedema)

The majority of heart/cardiac operations in the UK are successful but sometimes things do go wrong and mistakes can have devastating effects.

We have won cardiac negligence claims in instances where:

  • a heart attack was misdiagnosed, usually as gastritis/indigestion
  • a delay in adequate treatment of high blood pressure caused injuries
  • a failure to treat heart failure properly caused injuries
  • failure to manage an arrhythmia appropriately, including following a cardiac arrest

Mistakes can be serious leading to brain damage, other serious injury and, on occasion, death.
