An Analytical Study on Medicolegal Cases at a Tertiary Care Hospital
Introduction: Medico-legal audits are an integral part of hospital/clinical audits and involve examination of the hospital records. The clinical audits aim towards improvement of quality of care and hence are limited to the scrutiny of patient’s clinical records. On the other hand, a medico-legal audit aims at the prevention of foreseeable litigations on the hospital and includes the perusal of all the hospital records. Aim: To perform a Medicolegal records audit at a tertiary care hospital Results: Road traffic accidents are the major Medicolegal cases(65%) arriving to the emergency department. Males are more involved in the Medicolegal incidents than females. Conclusion: The medico-legal auditing helps in the necessary changes to be put forth for the better functioning of the hospital.
