Malpractice claims and complaints in Neurointervention

Although many U.S. neurointerventionalists report at least one stressful malpractice claim over their career, the majority conclude without any court proceedings or direct repercussions in their practice. In this podcast, we look at the prevalence and causes of malpractice claims and complaints filed with state medical boards against neurointerventionalists, and some of the risk factors in an increasingly busier field. Dr Felipe C. Albuquerque, Editor-in-Chief of JNIS, interviews Dr Kyle M. Fargen (Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem); and Dr Joshua A. Hirsch (Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston), both members of the editorial board of the journal and the authors of the paper:  Medical malpractice claims and state medical board complaints among United States neurointerventionalists.
