Negligence falls under tort laws, this is a legal step people generally look into for lawsuits where harm caused to a patient goes beyond known risks that the patient signed up for, or in some cases direct actions that would count despite certain contracts because of a deliberate intent to cause harm to a patient, and no doctor will give a 100 percent guarantee even on a well meaning procedure for this reason because they have rights like patients have rights to disclaim the effectiveness of practices, harm isn't the same as a statistical success rate. Contracts are usually signed so that doctors and nurses aren't held liable if adverse effects come from treatments or procedures that may inherently carry risks.
