Examples of birth injuries caused by obstetrical malpractice

Preventable birth injuries are often caused by the failure to take timely safety measures during labor and delivery. This can be realized in the failure to perform a cesarean section in a timely fashion or the failure to monitor the baby’s oxygen levels. Such obstetric malpractice can result in Erb’s palsy, cerebral palsy, respiratory distress, and other birth trauma. Using forceps or other instruments incorrectly can result in severe injury to the baby’s head and shoulders.
