What Is An Infant Brain Injury?
It refers to birth injuries that cause damage to an infant’s brain. It can occur before, during or shortly after the labor and delivery process. These injuries can range from mild to severe and may result in conditions such as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, cerebral palsy or Erb’s palsy.
Traumatic brain injuries in infants can lead to profound developmental delays, physical disabilities and cognitive impairments, affecting their overall quality of life.
What Causes Brain Injuries In Infants?
Medical professionals sometimes fail to recognize fetal distress until it is too late, leading to preventable brain injuries. Here are some common causes:
- Delayed cesarean section
- Lack of oxygen to the brain
- Incorrect pregnancy dating
- Untreated or improperly treated infections
- Low levels of amniotic fluid
- Twisted umbilical cords
- Babies that are too large for their gestational age
- Difficult forceps delivery
- Hemorrhage
- Breech birth
- Premature delivery
In some cases, your baby may have been in fetal distress, but the medical staff did not perform a cesarean section in time, leading to tragic consequences.
