There has been a general decline in the status of the doctor as mob harassment and lawsuits have increased exponentially, contributing to even more strained doctor patient relationship. Despite being good in their profession, when it comes to taking due measures to avoid mistakes or to handle medicolegal situations, only a few doctors are able to face the situation adeptly. Record-keeping, informed consent, and proper documentation form the basis of safe medical practice. Unexpected death in hospital or OT is a tricky issue and how to deal with it, how to manage the mob and media, when to send the body for postmortem examination, and how to complete the documentation in such cases, are all incorporated in the book. This state-of-the-art book contains 44 chapters, based on day-to-day medicolegal issues, contributed by authors with expertise in medicolegal knowledge and patientcare. The text is divided into eight sections Critical Patients, Procedural Complications, Errors in Practice and Unexpected Outcome, Difficult Situations, Statutory Situations, Negligence, Administrative Problems and Miscellaneous Topics. This book aims to meet the requirements of not only the practicing doctors but also the undergraduate and postgraduate students, medicolegal consultants and other stakeholders in legal profession, law enforcement agencies and judicial officers/judges.
