Hypothetical: A medical malpractice lawsuit alleges a failure to diagnose the aortic dissection that caused the sudden death of the patient. Two days before his death, the patient had visited a medical clinic, where the patient had shown normal vital signs except for a slight fever, and a mild shortness of breath. Based on the initial clinical presentation, the tentative diagnosis was pericardial rub or possible systolic murmur. The clinic’s electronic medical records (EMR) showed that the clinic had promptly ordered blood work, a blood culture, and an echocardiogram, with a follow-up appointment in one week.
