Did Your Baby Suffer An Injury During Birth?
If you or someone you love is a victim of a birth injury, help is available to you. A healthcare provider's momentary negligence or wrongdoing during a birth can lead to serious, life-long consequences. The affected child may be left with a disability or developmental delay that compromises their quality of life and leads to years of medical expenses. The stress and emotional pressures on their entire family can be enormous.Birth injuries can be caused by many things, including delays in delivering a baby in distress, improper use of medical equipment such as forceps, allowing vaginal delivery of a baby too large for the birth canal, complications from c-sections, and more.
If during a traumatic birth a baby is denied oxygen for just ten minutes, permanent brain damage can occur. Some of the most common birth injuries are:
• Cerebral Palsy
• Erb's Palsy
• Shoulder Dystocia
• Uterine Rupture
• Anoxic and Hypoxic Injuries (Brain Damage)
• Brachial Plexus Palsy (Nerve injury)
