Cerebral Palsy
Claims

What are the common causes of Cerebral Palsy?

It is often the case that a brain injury caused by a traumatic birth could have been avoided. Some preventable injuries to the brain can be caused by inadequate levels of care by midwives or doctors at the time of delivery and birth, but may not be recognised at the time such as:

• failure to recognise that a baby is in distress, and to act upon this;
• failure to identify umbilical cord changes;
• failure to identify an infection;
• incorrect use of forceps or ventouse extractor.
