Anesthesia Error – Hypoxic Brain Injury
About the Investigation:
Siri & Glimstad is evaluating claims from individuals in all states who have suffered a Hypoxic Brain Injury Due to an Anesthesia Error.
What Exactly is a Hypoxic Brain Injury?
A Hypoxic Brain Injury (Cerebral Hypoxia) can occur when the brain is deprived of oxygen for an extended period of time. When this happens, even seconds of oxygen loss can cause serious damage to brain cells, leading to devastating and often permanent effects.
The Hypoxic Brain Injury/General Anesthesia Connection.
One of the most common risks during general anesthesia is airway obstruction, which can occur when the muscles naturally relax as a patient falls asleep. This is why it is absolutely essential for anesthesiologists and medical staff to carefully monitor a patient’s breathing throughout the procedure. Failure to do so can lead to a dangerous reduction in oxygen levels—sometimes due to negligence or medical error—which may result in a Hypoxic Brain Injury.
Even a mild Hypoxic Brain Injury can cause long-term or lifelong cognitive, physical, or emotional challenges. If you or a loved one has experienced a brain injury following a medical procedure, it’s important to understand your rights and explore the options available to seek justice and support for long-term care and recovery.
