Each year, an estimated 795,000 American patients die or become permanently disabled because they are being misdiagnosed by health care providers, according to a report published recently in USA Today.
The top conditions that are misdiagnosed?
◾Stroke
◾ Sepsis
◾ Pneumonia
◾ Blood clots
◾ Lung cancer
These five conditions account for almost 40% of the errors, so hopefully doctors can start by focusing their efforts on these conditions to reduce mistakes and save lives.
