Abstract
The last 60 years have seen unprecedented advances in medical treatment. Patients' expectations for a successful outcome are now higher than at any previous time. More and more patients are ready to sue for damages if the result is disappointing, since there is less readiness to accept that failure may not be the result of medical negligence.
