birth trauma
Delivery of a healthy child is
dependent on many factors, including timing of a doctor’s actions or
emergency C-section delivery and his or her skills in using
delivery-assistance instruments. An error before, during or immediately
after delivery can result in devastating trauma to the infant and
mother. Injuries to the child can include brachial injuries, shoulder
dystocia, and oxygen depravation which can result in death, brain
damage, developmental disorders, or cerebral palsy. Mothers can suffer
C-section complications, uterine rupture, and death. If you believe
your family has been affected by a negligent delivery, Bailey &
