   • Failure to Diagnose: When a medical professional fails to identify a patient’s condition, leading to a lack of necessary treatment.
   • Incorrect Diagnosis: Diagnosing the wrong condition, causing the patient to receive inappropriate or harmful treatments.

2. Surgical Errors:

1. • Wrong Site Surgery: Performing surgery on the incorrect part of the body or the wrong patient entirely.
   • Surgical Negligence: Errors during surgery, such as leaving instruments inside the body or improper surgical techniques.

3. Medication Mistakes:

   • Delivery Room Errors: Mistakes during childbirth that cause injury to the baby or mother, such as improper use of forceps or failure to perform a timely C-section.

5. Anesthesia Errors:

1. • Incorrect Dosage: Administering too much or too little anesthesia, leading to complications like awareness during surgery or overdose.
