Types of Birth Injuries

All birth injuries are upsetting news to the new parents of a child. Unfortunately, most of the birth injuries are completely avoidable and many occur when doctors fail to perform delivering procedures properly. The main types of injuries that can occur during the birth/delivery process are injuries from trauma and injuries from a lack of oxygen to the brain. When serious brain injury occurs, a child is at serious risk for suffering the effects for the rest of their life. Below is a list of some of the most common birth injuries.

This is caused when brain damage occurs before birth. A damage to the brain may occur if the baby suffers from some kind of oxygen deprivations in the brain. However, this injury may occur in other ways as well. This injury results in impaired muscle coordination, partial paralysis, and other impairments.

  • Erb’s Palsy:

This an injury that causes paralysis to the arm or the upper group of the arm’s nerves. Often, this occurs when a doctor forcefully manipulates the baby through the birth canal and damages the baby’s arms or upper body.

  • Bone Fractures:

Complicated or prolonged deliveries can lead to bruising and more serious injuries, such as bone fractures. In some cases, careless or negligent medical professional cause these injuries by using too much force during labor and delivery.
