high-profile legal dispute, a family from Alicante has filed an administrative claim with the Regional Ministry of Health, requesting compensation of 2.3 million euros.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbleon-abogados.com\/en\/\">lawyers in Alicante<\/a>, experts in medical malpractice have the confidence of this family and from the beginning they are advising them with the collection of evidence and also with a qualified medical expert advice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">They allege that their son, Martin Reyes, suffered neurological damage due to an accidental intubation in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the General Hospital of Alicante after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/es-es\/diseases-conditions\/cleft-palate\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20370985\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cleft lip<\/a> operation in February 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The medical expert report provided by the family concludes that the extubation, which resulted in desaturation and bradycardia, was the result of a breach of duty of care, causing neurological sequelae. This claim, however, has been contested by the Conselleria de Sanidad, which maintains that reports are being prepared to establish the facts surrounding the child&#8217;s care in the ICU.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Martin was born on October 21, 2021 with several congenital malformations, including a cleft lip and a tracheoesophageal fistula, which required intensive medical care from the beginning. After a successful operation to correct the fistula, the doctors proceeded to operate on the cleft lip. However, eight days after the operation, Martin suffered the accidental extubation that the family believes was the origin of his neurological sequelae.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_expert_medical_report_provided_by_Carlos_Bano_Leons_medical_malpractice_lawyers_Alicante\"><\/span><strong>The expert medical report provided by Carlos Ba\u00f1o Leon&#8217;s medical malpractice lawyers Alicante.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Based on hospital reports from June 2022, it describes Martin&#8217;s progression to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy with sequelae of infantile cerebral palsy. According to the report, the sequelae include severe dysphagia, <a href=\"https:\/\/neuropediatra.org\/2016\/03\/28\/tetraparesia-espastica-paralisis-cerebral-infantil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spastic tetraparesis<\/a> and considerable cosmetic damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The medical examiner emphasized the term &#8220;accidental extubation&#8221; in the reports signed by several specialists. According to hospital reports, it is expected that Martin may need constant assistance due to the severity of his conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Meanwhile, the moving account of Martin&#8217;s struggle to recover has gained considerable attention on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/el_batallon_de_tintin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a>. Martin&#8217;s mother, Yovana Reyes, has created an Instagram account with more than 30,000 followers, telling her son&#8217;s story and seeking support for his rehabilitation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Despite the difficulties, the family has reported significant progress thanks to the therapies funded by their fundraising campaign. The mother describes how Martin, who could barely move a few months ago, can now roll over on his stomach and try to get up thanks to these therapies.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The family has been grateful for the solidarity and support received in this difficult journey, and will continue to fight for the justice and compensation they believe their son deserves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>This legal and medical dispute remains open, while Martin&#8217;s parents hope that justice will be done for the harm suffered by their son.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lawyers specialized in medical malpractice of Carlos Ba\u00f1o Le\u00f3n presented the obligatory previous claim of patrimonial responsibility and we are waiting for a resolution that we imagine will be of lack of recognition of the existence of patrimonial responsibility of the Administration and will force us to have to resort to the judicial contentious-administrative route.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It should be known that claims for medical malpractice arising from public health care is the competence of the contentious-administrative jurisdiction and not the civil jurisdiction, and prior to the judicial claim of liability of the Administration is required to formulate the relevant prior claim what lawyers specializing in medical malpractice in Alicante Carlos Ba\u00f1o Leon formulated already 6 months ago, without against so far with an explicit resolution.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_family_is_represented_by_an_experienced_medical_malpractice_attorney\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>The family is represented by an experienced medical malpractice attorney.<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-34453 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cblspanishlawyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas.jpg\" alt=\"medical malpractice in alicante\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/cbleon-abogados.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/abogado-experto-en-negligencias-medicas-760x507.jpg 760w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">which believes that there is sufficient evidence to establish a breach of care in the health care provided to little Martin.
