Common Causes of Birth Injuries in Dallas, TX

A birth injury is any injury or harm the mother or baby sustains before, during, and after delivery. Medical errors and negligence are the most common reasons for birth injuries. Sadly, most birth injuries are preventable.

Reasons for birth injuries include, but are not limited to:

  • Errors and mistakes in administering anesthesia
  • Failing to monitor the mother and baby for fetal distress during labor and delivery
  • Not timely diagnosing a prolapsed umbilical cord
  • Ignoring the signs of health problems a mother has that could impact labor and delivery
  • Delays in ordering a Cesarean section
  • Oxygen deprivation for the infant
  • Improper use of vacuums, forceps, and other birthing tools
  • Surgical errors and mistakes
  • Ignoring how the size of a baby could impact labor and delivery
  • Uterine rupture
  • Obstructed or difficult labor (dystocia)

Many things can go wrong during labor and delivery. Therefore, nurses, doctors, and other medical staff must closely monitor the mother and baby for signs of distress. Failure to monitor and immediately address problems are two common reasons for birth injuries.

Consequences of Birth Injuries for the Baby

Birth injuries can have life-altering consequences for your baby. Your baby could develop life-threatening conditions or permanent impairments because of medical negligence and errors.

Common birth injuries our legal team handles include, but are not limited to:

Birth injuries can cause cognitive, emotional, and physical impairments. They can also cause developmental delays.

Signs of birth injuries can include high-pitched screaming, arching the back, discolored skin, trouble breathing, feeding problems, bruising, swelling, and weak reflexes. If your baby displays any unusual symptoms, seek medical treatment immediately.

  • Head-on Collision
  • Hit and Run Collisions
  • Rollover Accidents
  • T-bone Accidents
  • Construction Zone Crashes
  • Rear-end Accidents
  • Parking Lot Accidents
  • Multicar Collisions
  • Single-vehicle Crashes
  • Intersection Accidents

What Damages Can I Receive for a Dallas Birth Injury Lawsuit?

If your baby was injured because of medical negligence, you can seek compensation for damages by filing a medical malpractice lawsuit. Compensation could include economic and non-economic damages.

Examples of damages in a birth injury case include:

  • Your loss of income incurred caring for your child
  • Past and future medical bills and expenses
  • The cost of occupational, physical, and other rehabilitative therapies
  • In-home nursing care
  • Specialized education programs
  • Medications and medical devices
  • Emotional distress and mental anguish
  • Personal care and services
  • Permanent disabilities, impairments, and disfigurement
  • Your child’s diminished earning capacity
  • Diminished quality of life for your child
  • Physical pain and suffering

Money cannot undo the damage your child suffers because of medical malpractice. However, a monetary award can provide the resources you need to help your child overcome the harm caused by negligent and careless medical providers.
