When Post-Delivery Complications Cause Serious Injuries
Are you uncertain what happened after your baby was born and whether his or her care caused serious injury or even death? Do you suspect that the delivering physician, the nurses or other hospital staff were negligent in some way? Are there questions about the postpartum care or resuscitation?
Questions regarding post-delivery care we can look into include:
- Was the resuscitation timely and adequately performed?
- Were there post-delivery seizures that were not treated?
- How did the APGAR scores change over 1 minute, 5 minutes and 10 minutes?
- Were there medical conditions identified during your pregnancy, labor or delivery that warranted the preparation for a post-delivery resuscitation?
- Was appropriate care taken to treat a premature (preemie) or other baby who was suffering from respiratory stress disorder (RSP), including birth resuscitation?
- Was jaundice in your newborn recognized and treated appropriately through phototherapy or other intervention?
- Was fetal distress or newborn distress recognized and responded to in a timely manner?
- If the infant was in distress, was she transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)?
