The increasing number of accidents caused by medical practices and the consequent increase in casualties to patients makes it more than necessary to investigate the issue. While the legal system of some countries, including France, has taken collective initiatives to compensate for damages caused by medical practices, Iran's rights are subject to compensation only in the context of civil liability based on the physician's fault.
