Birth and Neonatal Injuries

A birth injury diagnosis is a life-altering event for any family. While some complications are unavoidable, many are the direct result of medical negligence during pregnancy, labor, or the neonatal period. This category provides in-depth resources on injuries such as Cerebral Palsy, HIE (Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy), Brachial Plexus injuries, and the failure of medical teams to monitor fetal distress. At Lupetin & Unatin, we understand the complex medical standards required in labor and delivery wards. These articles explore how failures in the standard of care—such as delayed C-sections or improper use of delivery tools—can lead to permanent neurological or physical damage. Our goal is to empower parents with the information they need to understand what went wrong and how to secure the financial resources required for their child’s lifelong care and therapy.

Evaluation of a Birth Injury Case (Part 1)

This foundational article outlines the critical first steps in evaluating a potential birth injury claim, emphasizing the importance of timing and medical evidence in cases of birth asphyxia. We explore the nuances of Apgar scores, cord blood gas analysis, and the role of multi-organ system dysfunction in identifying oxygen deprivation during labor. By examining the technical complexities of prenatal and neonatal brain injuries, this guide helps families understand how to build a case that can withstand common medical defenses.
