Sin embargo, con frecuencia, el cirujano completa la operaci\u00f3n seg\u00fan lo planeado, pero alguien m\u00e1s del equipo comete un error cr\u00edtico. En el bufete de abogados Debra L. Broz, Attorneys at Law, PLC, entendemos que las estad\u00edsticas sobre la retenci\u00f3n de gasas quir\u00fargicas indican que este error podr\u00eda poner en riesgo su salud.<\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan Modern Healthcare, estas gasas&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.modernhealthcare.com\/article\/20170217\/SPONSORED\/170219901\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dispositivos quir\u00fargicos<\/a>&nbsp;Pueden ser tan dif\u00edciles de identificar una vez empapadas de sangre, que los m\u00e9todos de conteo pre y posquir\u00fargicos son alarmantemente imprecisos. Aproximadamente uno de cada 64 procedimientos que utilizan esta t\u00e9cnica deja una esponja en la cavidad corporal. Por esta raz\u00f3n, la mayor\u00eda de los hospitales no se basan \u00fanicamente en el conteo. Cuando hay un error en el conteo, el procedimiento de seguimiento para garantizar que la cavidad corporal no contenga objetos suele ser una radiograf\u00eda. Desafortunadamente, estas solo detectan las esponjas el 67 % de las veces.<\/p>\n<p>A pesar de la dificultad conocida de retirar todas las esponjas, si se deja una despu\u00e9s de la cirug\u00eda, se considera un evento improbable. Esto significa que la comunidad m\u00e9dica lo ha reconocido como un error prevenible que nunca deber\u00eda ocurrir. Una soluci\u00f3n desarrollada y que podr\u00eda estar disponible para su cirujano es el uso de etiquetas y esc\u00e1neres de radiofrecuencia. Cuando cada esponja tiene una etiqueta, el equipo quir\u00fargico puede escanearlas r\u00e1pidamente para obtener un recuento preciso y detectar cualquier esponja faltante en su cavidad corporal. Un equipo que utiliz\u00f3 esta tecnolog\u00eda report\u00f3 una tasa de \u00e9xito del 100% en cinco a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n<p>M\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n sobre&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/debrabrozlaw.com\/es\/personal-injury\/\">Problemas m\u00e9dicos y negligencia<\/a>&nbsp;est\u00e1 disponible en nuestra p\u00e1gina web.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Al someterse a una cirug\u00eda en un hospital de Kentucky, es posible que su principal preocupaci\u00f3n sea el \u00e9xito del procedimiento.
