Cause of Birth Injuries

Posted on February 18, 2013 - 10:08 pm by Adam Peck

Cause of birth injuries: Birth injuries are routinely caused by careless, negligent and, or neglectful medical professionals. Out of approximately every 1000 births that occur in the United States, 7 of those births will have medical and sometimes life threatening consequences depending on the type and the severity of the birth related injury.

There are many types of birth Injuries that you should be made aware of including the following:

Large babies (babies over 8 pounds 13 ounces)
Prematurity (babies born before 37 weeks)
Cephalopelvic disproportion (the inadequacy of the size and shape of the mother’s pelvis)
Dystocia (difficult labor or childbirth)
Prolonged labor (labor lasting for a long period of time)
Abnormal birthing presentation (babies positioned breech or buttocks first prior to delivery)
Bilirubin
Brachial Plexus Injury
Brain Cooling
Structural or metabolic defects
Environmental causes
Multifactorial birth defects
Cleft lip and/or palate

There are many many more. Please visit our practice areas, Birth Injuries to review. Also, check out our blog posts about various birth injuries. Some babies might not display any symptoms at all, and it can take years before parents realize that something is not quite right with their child. Cerebral Palsy, for instance, can present in various ways, psychiatric, neurological, nerve problems and even blindness can all be indicators that occurred during the birth process.
