Cerebral Palsy is a group of disorders associated with loss of movement or nerve functions, caused by brain injuries during fetal development or labor and delivery. Cerebral Palsy occurs more often than you might think; experts estimate as many as two to four babies out of every 1,000 suffer from it. Cerebral Palsy can be caused by a number of unpreventable circumstances, but it can also be caused by poor medical care.
What kind of malpractice could lead to Cerebral Palsy?
- Failure to adequately monitor the fetus during pregnancy or labor – or failure to take action when the fetus’ condition changes
- Failure to adequately monitor the mother during pregnancy – or failure to take action when the mother’s condition changes
- Failure to perform a cesarean section when necessary due to fetal or maternal distress
- Failure to order specific tests during pregnancy, or not correctly interpreting these tests
- Improper use of labor-inducing drugs like Pitocin
- Lack of oxygen to the brain or trauma to the head during labor and delivery
