Clinical Negligence in Stroke

Small delays or missed signs in stroke care could lead to significant and permanent disability, directly affecting liability, causation and quantum. Clinical decision-making within the hyperacute window, including recognition, imaging and treatment eligibility, was central to how these cases were analysed. This webinar for legal professionals focused on the full pathway of liability, causation and quantum in stroke cases. Using real case examples, Dr Cristina Russo explained how clinical evidence was interpreted and how expert opinion supported the court in determining whether earlier intervention would have changed the outcome.
