Arzthaftungsrecht ist auch nach der Kodifikation durch das Patientenrechtegesetz maßgeblich durch Richterrecht geprägt. In jahrzehntelanger Rechtsprechung hat sich eine nahezu unüberschaubare Vielzahl an Fallgruppen und haftungsrechtlich relevanten medizinischen Sachverhalten herausgebildet. Der Martis/Winkhart erläutert diese umfangreiche Kasuistik anhand der Systematik des Arzthaftungsrechts. Über alphabetische Stichworte und detaillierte Inhaltsverzeichnisse können Praktiker - vom Einsteiger in die Thematik bis hin zum erfahrenen Arzthaftungsrechtler - sich die Leitlinien der Rechtsprechung für den konkreten Fall schnell und sicher erschließen. Die Interessen der Patientenanwälte und der Vertreter der Behandlungsseite sind dabei in gleichem Maße berücksichtigt. Auch Schadenssachbearbeiter und Justiziare werden hier fündig. In das nunmehr in fünfter Auflage vorliegende Standardwerk wurden über 600 neue Entscheidungen aus den Jahren 2014-2017 eingearbeitet. Das gesamte Werk wurde auf den aktuellen Stand gebracht und insbesondere die Stichworte "Aufklärung", "Diagnoseirrtum", "Voll beherrschbare Risiken", "Sturz im Pflegeheim und Krankenhaus" und "Unterlassene Befunderhebung" erweitert und mit ausführlicheren Übersichten versehen. Die Erläuterungen zu medizinischen Begriffen, Diagnostik und Therapie wurden ausgebaut und finden sich nun bei vielen weiteren Fallgruppen unter dem Hinweis "Medizinischer Hintergrund". Zudem bietet das Werk zwei umfangreiche Muster zu Klage und Klageerwiderung.

There is an understandable tendency or desire to attribute blame when patients are harmed by their own healthcare. However, many cases of iatrogenic harm involve little or no moral culpability. Even when blame is justified, an undue focus on one individual often deflects attention from other important factors within the inherent complexity of modern healthcare. This revised second edition advocates a rethinking of accountability in healthcare based on science, the principles of a just culture, and novel therapeutic legal processes. Updated to include many recent relevant events, including the Keystone Project in the USA and the Mid Staffordshire scandal in the UK, this book considers how the concepts of a just culture have been successfully implemented so far, and makes recommendations for best practice. This book will be of interest to anyone concerned with patient safety, medical law and the regulation of healthcare.

The papers in this collection are drawn from a symposium held in Vienna in December 2010. Organised by the Institute for European Tort Law and the Chicago-Kent Law Review, in collaboration with the European Centre of Tort and Insurance Law, the conference drew together legal experts from 14 national or regional systems across six continents. Medical malpractice and compensation for medical injuries are issues which regularly create tension and innovation in national legal systems but the analysis of these areas is often limited to national audiences. This study examines the issues in a uniquely global context, demonstrating the breadth of approaches currently taken around the world and revealing key areas of tension and the likely direction of future developments. Wherever possible, the analysis is supported by reference to empirical data. The 14 legal systems covered in the collection are Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Poland, Scandinavia, South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. A general comparative introduction completes the collection.
