After a patient developed a
After a patient developed a blocked artery in the mesenteric area of his circulatory system, doctors failed to diagnose the atherosclerosis until it was too late. The lack of blood flow resulted in massive necrosis throughout the patient’s intestines with perforations leaking fecal fluid from the anatomy.
Had care providers properly diagnosed the obstructed artery, they could have easily prevented the mesenteric ischemia through two procedures: 1) using a stent to expand the artery or 2) creating a bypass to restore blood flow around the obstructed area.
Paul D’Amore and Ace McBride needed a visual presentation that would establish their client’s mechanism of injury and show how it could have easily been avoided. We built them a custom Digital Injury Summary equipped with a medical animation series that would achieve the following visual objectives:
Establish the mechanism of injury: how the misdiagnosed mesenteric ischemia resulted in a severely damaged abdominal anatomy.
Demonstrate how this catastrophe could have easily been avoided had care providers performed a cardiac stent procedure to restore blood flow by expanding the artery.
Show how this catastrophe could have also been avoided had care providers performed a bypass grafting procedure to restore blood around the obstructed area.
This animation series helped Mr. D’Amaore and Mr. McBride establish their client’s mechanism of injury, and show jurors how it could have easily been avoided had care providers correctly diagnosed their client’s deteriorating condition. The jury awarded the family of Mr. McBride’s client a $1.67M wrongful death verdict.
