What is a Birth Injury?
Birth injury cases are extremely complex in terms of both the legal complications involved but also because of the very stressful and emotional experience that parents and family go through. A birth injury can occur whenever a baby is injured before, during or shortly after birth. Injury can result from many different circumstances but common complaints are of skin irritation, fractured bones, brain injury and nerve damage. One of the most common forms of medical negligence is cerebral palsy.
While any number of injuries may occur during the birthing process. A number of specific conditions are well described. Brachial plexus palsy occurs in 0.4 to 5.1 infants per 1000 live birth. Head trauma during delivery can lead to a number of conditions include: caput succedaneum, cephalohematoma, subgaleal hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, epidural hemorrhage, and intraventricular hemorrhage.
The most common fracture during delivery is that of the clavicle (0.5%). Birth injuries can result from vacuum extraction and the use of forceps.
