The editors explore clinical governance issues, common causes of as well as ways to avoid litigation. The UK is experiencing a dramatic increase in medico-legal claims. The 4 main reasons for litigation are: accountability, the need for an explanation, concern with standards of care and compensation. However the decision to take legal action is determined not only by the original injury, but failure to provide information, an explanation and an apology. Insensitive handling of an injury and poor communication after the original incident increases the risk of litigation and erodes the patient-doctor relationship. Doctors almost never deliberately cause harm to patients, however increasingly claims are being defended successfully. This book is invaluable to clinicians and lawyers alike and raises awareness of how to avoid facing clinical negligence claims in our day to day practice. 606 $aGynecology  606 $aPublic health 606 $aMedical laws and legislation 606 $aGynecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H26006 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aMedical Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R16005 615 0$aGynecology . 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aMedical laws and legislation. 615 14$aGynecology. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aMedical Law. 676 $a344.410412 702 $aJha$b Swati$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFerriman$b Emma$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300271203321 996 $aMedicolegal Issues in Obstetrics and Gynaecology$91744572 997 $aUNINA
