Wrongful Death – Cardiologist Malpractice
It is critical to properly and carefully evaluate heart failure in a person, because if it is not identified the individual will risk death from a heart attack. Heart failure and heart diseases can affect the person’s heart over time, where scar tissue can form and increase the risks of another heart related event. There are many factors that can contribute to someone having a heart attack or heart disease, such as:
- Diabetes
- Hypertension
- Smoking tobacco
- High cholesterol
- Weakened heart
- Congenital heart disease
There are many treatments available for heart failure, and these treatments will be specific to the person’s situation. But if a doctor fails to detect the symptoms of an impending heart failure episode, it could be catastrophic for the person suffering from a heart related episode.

Failure to Send Patient to Cardiologist and Failure to Perform EKG Exam
The electrocardiogram or ECG (EKG) test reviews heart conditions and measures the electrical activity of a person’s heart. There are several sticky electrodes and wire leads that are placed on your chest, arms and legs during the EKG, and a machine records this activity on paper for the doctor to read.
The EKG is able to diagnose several impending heart conditions, such as:
- Heart attack
- Cardiac arrest
- Pericarditis
- Myocarditis
- Heart inflammation
- Poor blood supply going to the heart
The other symptoms that you can experience with heart issues can include:
- Chest pain
- Dizziness
- Fainting
- Fatigue
- Racing heart
- Fluttering heart
- Thumping and pounding heart
- Sweating profusely
- Shortness of breath
- Dizziness
- Angina
- Discomfort in the chest, arms, shoulders, neck, jaw and back
- Light-headedness
- Fainting
- Feeling anxious
- Vomiting
- Indigestion
- Cold sweats
