This animation, which we use at trial, demonstrates how a shoulder dystocia occurs.
This serious neurological disorder can result from oxygen deprivation during delivery and other causes.
"Hypoxia" simply means lack of adequate oxygen. It can result in brain damage or even death.
Brachial Plexus Injury
Such injuries can result in Erb's palsy and other lifelong effects.
This condition occurs when the baby's shoulder becomes trapped inside the birth canal.
Fetal Distress
Fetal distress is often the first sign that something is going wrong during pregnancy, labor or delivery. If medical professionals fail to monitor the baby or take prompt action when fetal distress is observed, the child may suffer serious harm or even death.
Uterine Rupture
Improper administration of Pitocin or other labor-inducing drugs is one potential cause of a ruptured uterus, which can place both the mother's and baby's lives in jeopardy.
