Although many U.S. neurointerventionalists report at least one stressful malpractice claim over their career, the majority conclude without any court proceedings or direct repercussions in their practice. In this podcast, we look at the prevalence and causes of malpractice claims and complaints filed with state medical boards against neurointerventionalists, and some of the risk factors in an increasingly busier field.
Dr Felipe C. Albuquerque, Editor-in-Chief of JNIS, interviews Dr Kyle M. Fargen (Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem); and Dr Joshua A. Hirsch (Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston), both members of the editorial board of the journal and the authors of the paper: Medical malpractice claims and state medical board complaints among United States neurointerventionalists.

Patients with good motor function outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage treatment may still be left with neuropsychiatric effects. They can suffer from such difficult conditions as cognitive dysfunction, depression and sexual dysfunction. Not all of these patients will volunteer their symptoms unprompted on follow-up. This outcome type has had limited study, and became an interest of today's guest, Dr. Jose Danilo Bengzon Diestro (1). JNIS editor-in-chief Dr. Felipe Albuquerque speaks with him on this subject, based on the recently published paper, "Long-term neuropsychiatric complications of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a narrative review".
