Understanding Birth Injuries

What Constitutes a Birth Injury?
A birth injury refers to any physical harm suffered by a newborn during the birthing process. This can include a wide range of conditions, from minor bruising to severe brain damage. Common types of birth injuries include:

  • Cerebral Palsy: Often caused by lack of oxygen during delivery.
  • Erb’s Palsy: Resulting from nerve damage in the shoulder during childbirth.
  • Fractures: Bone breaks that can occur during a difficult delivery.

The Impact on Families
The implications of a birth injury extend beyond the medical costs; families face emotional, financial, and psychological challenges. Long-term care and therapy may be required, significantly affecting the family’s quality of life.
