In the last decade, in Romanian society, have increased the accusations of medical malpractice, affecting both, the medical profession and civil society. In addition to growing awareness of liability issues for medical profession and medical staff, and for the patient, medical malpractice has triggered widely fear, and not always realistic.
In Romanian society, malpractice cases have a coverage and high visibility in mass media, incite as accusations against doctors and medical staff escalates, fear of being sued increase comparable, influencing medical decision making and, many times, resulting a defensive approach of the healthcare.
The issue of legal liability for medical malpractice increases fear among practitioners,
especially when the medical staff – patient relationship can become a litigious relationship (conflict), particularly in the medical fields with high risk (surgery, anesthesiology, intensive care, obstetrics, orthopedics, emergency medicine, etc.).
