    Author: Bird S.
    Journal: Aust Fam Physician; 2003 May; 32(5):348-9. PubMed ID: 12772368.
    Abstract:
    Case histories are based on actual medical negligence claims, however, certain facts have been omitted or changed by the author to ensure the anonymity of the parties involved. Despite the best intentions of medical practitioners, things do go wrong from time to time and a patient may experience an adverse outcome as a result of a medical practitioner's actions. This article discusses some of the issues that general practitioners should consider when things go wrong.
