As an example, a portrayal of a medical procedure leading to injury would combine a number of information points. These points can be portrayed as described in the following outline:

1. Begin with a general anatomy lesson, portraying the relevant body parts.
2. Then portray the medical instruments the doctors used with explanations of their function.
3. Then portray the procedure, one step at a time.
4. Repeat that part of the procedure that went wrong, perhaps with extended details.
5. Portray the effect this mistake had on the patient’s functioning and life.
6. Now portray how the procedure should have happened, and how the patient’s health should now be.
7. Finally, present the monetary issues, detailing the financial damages and requested compensation.

Note that these portrayals present a number of information points, in a logical order and structure, all leading to the conclusion that, but for the mistake made, the life of the patient would be much different.

Depending on budget and strategy, these example portrayals can be presented using a combination of two or three-dimensional video graphics, anatomy models, traditional medical illustrations, enhanced medical film (MRIs, CAT scans, etc.), “Day in the Life” video and print exhibits.
