Brain Injury to Newborn: The Devastating Consequences & What You Can Do About It in 2023
Brain injury to newborn
When a newborn baby suffers a brain injury, it can have devastating consequences for the child and their family. Brain injuries can occur before, during, or after birth, and can result in long-lasting neurological problems, developmental delays, and other serious health issues. If your baby has suffered a brain injury due to medical negligence, it is important to understand your rights and seek the help of an experienced attorney.
Brain injuries in newborns can occur for a number of reasons. During pregnancy, a lack of oxygen, bleeding in the brain, or other problems can cause brain damage. During delivery, a prolonged labor, use of forceps or vacuum extraction, or other issues can lead to brain injuries. After birth, a lack of oxygen, meningitis, or other infections can also cause brain damage.
The effects of a brain injury in a newborn can be severe and long-lasting. Some common symptoms include:
Seizures
Developmental delays
Cognitive problems
Movement and coordination issues
Speech and language difficulties
Vision and hearing problems
Behavioral and emotional problems
These symptoms can have a profound impact on a child's development and quality of life, and can also affect their family in a number of ways. The cost of caring for a child with a brain injury can be substantial, and the emotional toll can be overwhelming.
