C-Sections Can Result In Serious Injuries

Last updated on January 4, 2024

There are many potential complications that can arise during the delivery of a child. Cesarean sections, or C-sections, can offer vital relief to a fetus or mother who is suffering critical distress. But, that relief can only come when a doctor and his or her support staff are aware that a C-section is necessary and take necessary steps to support both mother and child.

Since 1977, the law firm of Colley Shroyer Abraham has supported injured people as they pursue justice. We are prepared to use that deep knowledge of the legal system to fight for your rights. From our office in Columbus, we provide guidance to people throughout Ohio who have suffered as a result of a healthcare provider’s negligent actions.

The Impact Of Errors During C-Sections

Obstetricians and other medical professionals who aid in a delivery need to take steps to ensure that the delivery is progressing normally. Failing to monitor the health of the mother or child or misinterpreting the information from fetal monitoring strips or other sources can have disastrous consequences.

When a child is under distress, there may be precious little time to perform an emergency C-section. The decision needs to be made quickly, and it needs to be based on a correct assessment of all available information. Failure to do so can result in a variety of injuries, including:

  • Cerebral palsy
  • Brain damage
  • Hypoxia
  • Anoxia
  • Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)
  • Death

These serious complications can cause life-altering or fatal harm, changing families forever. Thankfully, you and your loved ones do not need to fight for justice alone.
