Malpractice & Birth Injuries
There are situations where a birth injury may be caused by medical malpractice, which is carelessness or negligence on the part of a professional in the medical field. A newborn is particularly susceptible to injury with newly developed organs, soft bones and a weak immune system. Even a slight mistake or delay on the part of an obstetrician or nurse may lead to any of the following injuries:
- Cerebral palsy
- Erb's palsy
- Paralysis
- Nerve damage
- Brachial plexus injury
- Brain damage
- Wrongful death
- Broken or fractured bones
A serious birth injury may forever alter the course of a child's life. It may cause a child to suffer from developmental delays, mental retardation or other conditions that will make living a normal life virtually impossible. It may leave a family to deal with continued medical care for their child for many years or for the child's entire life. Many of these conditions are irreversible.
