Oxygen Deprivation

Oxygen deprivation, or Anoxia, results when an infant's supply of oxygen to the brain is reduced, which can cause brain damage. This can occur in all stages of pregnancy, although the most risk is present during delivery. The treating physician has a responsibility to monitor a child during birth to ensure that it is properly oxygenated, and to take immediate action to correct any potential problems.

Oxygen deprivation at birth can occur under many different circumstances. A baby may suffer oxygen deprivation due ‘natural’ circumstances such as the umbilical cord becoming compressed or twisted in the birth process, the baby being too large to pass through the birth canal easily, or the baby being breach or sideways in the womb. The medical team must be prepared for these situations and act immediately to save the child should any problems arise.
Oxygen deprivation during birth can lead to serious disabilities and defects, cerebral palsy, brain damage, and in some cases, even death.

If you or someone you know has been injured due to oxygen deprivation, you may be entitled to monetary compensation. Please fill out the form below for a free evaluation of your claim by an experienced attorney. There is no cost or obligation for this service.
