Baby Brain Damage Injury During Birth

Common causes of brain damage during childbirth
Brain damage can result from a childbirth complication or medical malpractice during the delivery process. A few of the common causes of brain damage during childbirth include, but are not limited to, bleeding inside the brain due to improper delivery, infection during pregnancy undetected by the doctor, and lack of oxygen due to improper delivery.  We know there are certain factors 
out of a doctor’s control, however, if your doctor failed or neglected to detect certain warning signs or to take necessary preventative measures, complications can happen.  Our firm has experienced attorneys who specialize in birth injury cases and can help you in this situation.
 
Another common cause of brain damage in newborns is low blood sugar.  A doctor should test for neonatal hypoglycemia, which reduces greatly the chances of the baby or child suffering brain damage.  Brain damage in a newborn significantly alters the prospect of a healthy and prosperous life, but it can also lead to death.  Symptoms or indications of a baby who suffered brain damage during the delivery process include: unusual or awkward positioning, slow development, and/or vision and hearing problems.
