Including Cerebral Palsy and Brachial Plexus Injuries
More than 4 million babies are born in the United States every year. With 86,000 births in Washington State alone! Unfortunately, many risks and adverse events can occur during the birthing process, both during the prenatal period and during the birth itself.
Medical conditions affecting the fitness of the mother and baby might be undiagnosed – including gestational diabetes, pregnancy-induced hypertension (pre-eclampsia), and genetic problems. The baby's well-being might be impacted by undiagnosed deficiencies in the placenta or too little adequate amniotic fluid.
Through the birthing process there could be negligent care, such as for example delaying a cesarean section too much time or not picking through to ominous fetal heart-rate patterns, which may result in the child suffering a loss of oxygen and cerebral palsy because of brain damage. Sometimes there's a failure to acknowledge the danger of the child getting stuck in the birth canal, which may result in a brachial plexus injury to the child (shoulder dystocia or Erb's palsy) and a lifetime of disabilities for the child.
