Conference Overview
Diagnostic errors can cause serious harm or death. A 2023 Johns Hopkins study concluded that an estimated 795,000 Americans become permanently disabled or die annually because of misdiagnoses. Vascular events, infections, and cancers topped the list for serious harm. The top 5 diseases were stroke, sepsis, pneumonia, venous thromboembolism, and lung cancer. A new Massachusetts Department of Public Health report of 678,382 deliveries noted that dangerous complications from Labor and Delivery nearly doubled from 2011-2020, rising an average of 8.9% each year. Diagnostic failures are mostly due to faulty clinical reasoning, poor decision-making, an uncaring attitude, physician burnout, and inexcusable unawareness of new advances in medicine. The latter is especially relevant to the practice of obstetrics given advances in medical genetics that impact preconception, perinatal, and postnatal care, and which include the use and limitations of cell-free DNA screening, microarrays, whole exome sequencing, and whole genome sequencing. Cognitive biases, of which there are over 100, directly influence clinical decision-making and receive insufficient attention in the training of physicians. Mindless medicine, a risk-taking personality combined with a non-caring attitude further compound and invite catastrophic consequences. All of these considerations bear on the standards of care and avoidance of medical malpractice, an important focus of this conference.
Target Audience
The major objective of this conference is to enhance the continuing education of a range of specialties in medicine and allied professions, including obstetrics, gynecology, midwifery, neonatology, medicine, surgery, family medicine, emergency medicine, cardiology, radiology, human genetics, and ethics. The key reasons that have characterized the success of these conferences for the past 38 yearsare the highly qualified and renowned medical faculty, and the interactive insights and lessons concerning the role of law and lawyers, communicated by acknowledged “super lawyers.” Only through a thorough understanding of the complexities of medicine and law can physicians and litigators hope to deal effectively with the continuing challenges of medical and legal practice.
The specific goals of this conference are to:
- Teach healthcare professionals to better comprehend the machinations of negligence law, and to develop a more complete awareness of the need for anticipatory and safe practice.
- Teach legal professionals about the complex issues encountered in the practice of medicine, including the intricacies of decision-making, aiming to sharpen their understanding on behalf of their clients, both plaintiff and defense.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this conference, healthcare professionals will be able to articulate the role of law and lawyers in medical malpractice lawsuits and discuss the complexities of the legal process.
At the conclusion of this conference, legal professionals will be able to describe the best-evidence in medical malpractice as it pertains to standards of expected care in obstetrics, gynecology, midwifery, neonatology, medicine, surgery, family medicine, emergency medicine, cardiology, radiology, and human genetics.
