http://podcast.legalnursebusiness.com

Today you’ll have an opportunity to learn from a cardiologist, pharmacologist, and author, who has brought his expertise into the world of expert witnesses. Dr. Michael Zema shares what he has learned to sharpen his expert witness abilities.

Dr. Zema has a routine of breaking up case analysis with research, which not only relieves the tedium of endless pages of documentation but gives him new insights into the case.

He describes some of the pitfalls in electronic medical records with a warning that the copy-and-paste function can propagate a medical error for years. As an example, he describes meeting a patient whose chart incorrectly stated that he’d recently had bypass surgery. When Dr. Zema discovered this error, he found that the man’s medical records had perpetuated it for two years.

Because of the frequency of pharmaceutical errors, Dr. Zema urges expert witnesses to familiarize themselves as much as possible with pharmacology. He describes a case of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome in which an incorrectly prescribed drug played a big role.

Of special value to expert witnesses and attorneys is his approach to cross-examination. He always tries to think like the opposing attorney, an approach he also uses in analyzing the medical information.
