Medical Malpractice and Birth Asphyxia
Medical professionals should recognize the symptoms of birth asphyxia promptly and order the proper tests, such as MRIs, CT scans, blood tests, and X-rays, to determine the infant’s health status.
They should also be able to recommend the best therapeutic treatment for the infant’s recovery. This includes guiding the family or infant’s caregivers on how to care for the infant and mother after birth trauma has occurred.
A failure to diagnose or recognize when the symptoms of birth asphyxia occur can have severe results, leading to a medical malpractice claim.

A Medical Malpractice Attorney Can Help You
