Reseña del libro "A Practical Guide to Material Contribution in Clinical Negligence' (en Inglés)"

The current state of the law regarding material contribution in clinical negligence appears complicated and uncertain. This book charts the evolution of material contribution as a concept in causation from its original application in occupational disease cases to its more recent analysis in the context of clinical negligence.As with many areas of common law, the courts have attempted to define the factual characteristics of cases where material contribution causation can apply. It is commonly plead in clinical negligence where there are a range of potentially causative agents in operation and where the limitations of medical science prevent the application of traditional 'but for' causation. The courts have sought to categorise injuries and diseases in respect of their characteristics of 'divisibility' and 'indivisibility'. These terms have not however been applied and interpreted consistently. It is anticipated that clarification will be provided by the Supreme Court in due course.The aim of this book is to set out the legal landscape as it stands and provide practical assistance to enable claimants and defendants to argue their cases in causation.ABOUT THE AUTHORRhodri Jones is a barrister at St John's Chambers. He specialises in clinical negligence and inquests, acting for both claimants and defendants. Before retraining as a barrister Rhodri practiced as a medical doctor for 18 years, principally in A&E and general practice.CONTENTSIntroductionChapter One - Fundamentals of Material ContributionChapter Two - Categories of Disease and InjuryPART ONE: ORIGINS OF MATERIAL CONTRIBUTION IN OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE Chapter Three - A Single Causative Agent From Two SourcesChapter Four - Material Contribution to the RiskChapter Five - Recent Occupational Disease Cases Considering Material ContributionPART TWO: CLINICAL NEGLIGENCEChapter Six - Unsuccessful Application of Material Contribution in Clinical NegligenceChapter Seven - Successful Application of Material Contribution in Clinical NegligenceChapter Eight - ApportionmentChapter Nine - Consecutive and Concurrent Causative AgentsChapter Ten - Limitations on the Application of Material ContributionChapter Eleven - Material Contribution in Birth Injury CasesChapter Twelve - Material Contribution in Brain Injury CasesChapter Thirteen - Material Contribution in Psychiatric Injury CasesChapter Fourteen - Overall Conclusions
