How Birth Injury Can Cause Cerebral Palsy?
Cerebral Palsy is a medical condition that occurs when the part of the brain responsible for muscle control is injured during birth. While most cases are unavoidable, there are some cases where the brain injury was caused by medical malpractice and negligent responses during pregnancy and birth. Errors that can lead to cerebral palsy are:
- Delay a timely C-section to remove a distressed baby
- Incorrect usage of vacuum extractor or forceps
- Failure to note a decrease in the baby’s heart rate during delivery
- Letting infections go untreated or improper treatment in pregnancy
- Incorrect prenatal care
- Improper jaundice treatment in newborn
- Asphyxiation during pregnancy or birth
- Unnecessary bleeding and lack of oxygen in mother or infant
- Umbilical cord compression or entrapment during pregnancy or birth

The Lifetime Cost of Cerebral Palsy
Unfortunately, as there is no current cure for cerebral palsy, a diagnoses requires a life of treatment. For very severe cases, the financial costs of treatment can quickly become overwhelming.
If your child also has intellectual disabilities such as ADHD or autism, the additional treatment costs can be up to $500,000 a year.
