Do you have a case?

Was your Wernicke's missed?

Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome is caused by a vitamin B1 (thiamin) deficiency — and when it is caught in time, it is treatable. If any of the following describe what happened to you or your loved one, the injury may have been preventable, and you may have a claim.

What put you at risk

A B1 (thiamin) deficiency may result from:

  • Bariatric surgery
  • Dietary deficiencies
  • Eating disorders
  • Chronic alcohol abuse
  • Parenteral nutrition deficiency (TPN)
  • Prolonged nausea and vomiting
  • Side effects of chemotherapy

What you were left with

Untreated, B1 deficiency causes brain damage and lasting injury:

  • Vision disturbances (nystagmus)
  • Mental confusion
  • Short term memory loss
  • Disabling neurological injuries
  • Severe leg pain
  • Permanent mobility impairment
  • Lack of muscle coordination (ataxia)

Recognize your situation? A missed thiamin deficiency is often a preventable medical error — and we have recovered over $36 million for families in these cases.

Proving fault

Who can be held responsible

If your healthcare provider failed to recognize and treat a thiamine deficiency in a timely manner, you have the right to file a claim. Responsibility may fall on more than one party.

1

Doctor, Physician Assistant, or Nurse Practitioner

If a medical professional failed to timely recognize and treat your symptoms of Wernicke's and caused you further injury, they could be held liable.

2

Hospital Healthcare Provider

In many cases, the hospital employees or the hospital contractors may be held liable for your injuries.

3

Other Party

Your doctor may use a third-party provider for certain healthcare services. If the third party did not administer proper care, or misread test results, they may be responsible for your injuries.
