Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy is a devastating and crippling medical condition affecting the brain and central nervous system of an infant or young child. It is often attributed to complications, such as oxygen deprivation, head trauma or brain damage occurring before, during or shortly after delivery of the baby. A child diagnosed with cerebral palsy will change your life and your family forever. While not every child’s cerebral palsy is caused by medical negligence, there are preventable errors and medical mistakes that can lead to cerebral palsy including:

  • Failure to recognize fetal distress
  • Failing to diagnose high blood pressure or toxemia
  • Failure to perform a cesarean section in the presence of fetal distress
  • Improper use of forceps or excessive use of vacuum extraction
  • Failing to detect a prolapsed cord
  • Delaying delivery
  • Failing to recognize and treat infant seizures
  • Failing to diagnose and treat jaundice or meningitis
