What are Birth Injuries?

A birth injury refers to any physical harm or trauma that occurs to a newborn during the process of childbirth. These injuries can range from mild and temporary conditions to severe and long-lasting disabilities.

Birth injuries can result from various factors, including the baby's size and position, the mother's health and medical conditions, the use of medical interventions during labor, and the skill of the medical professionals involved.

Common birth injuries include:

  • Cerebral Palsy: This is a group of disorders affecting a child's movement, posture, and muscle tone, caused by damage to the brain before, during, or shortly after birth.
  • Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE): This occurs when the baby's brain doesn't receive enough oxygen, leading to potential brain damage.
  • Bruising and Swelling: Minor injuries like bruises or swelling can occur during delivery, particularly if forceps or vacuum extractors are used.
  • Fractures: Bones, such as collarbones or the clavicle, can break during difficult deliveries.
