Eminent birth injury lawyer Brian McMahon has recently recovered $5.6 million for the family affected by childbirth medical malpractice. This important achievement not only brings justice to the family but also forms a reference for birth injury cases caused by delay of cesarean section.
It arose from a negligent act of the doctors on duty who did not attend to the woman in time to go for cesarean section and the process was complicate. The newborn baby developed birth asphyxia strokes in newborns which means that his/her brain was starved of oxygen and at a later time, the child is diagnosed of cerebral palsy—the need for a caregiver throughout the remainder of the life.
‘This case shows that many preventable medical errors might lead to devastating effects,’ says Brian McMahon, CEO and founder of the firm that has been in operation for several years offering justice to families that endured inconvenience because of birth injury. “No parent should wake up in the morning knowing that if their child received the right medication they could have been cured.”
The Case and Its Implications
They did not distinguish compelling evidence of fetal distress during the vital phases of labor. Rather than proceeding to the emergency cesarean section, the medical staff decided to carry on with the vaginal delivery until the baby lost oxygen . This delay made the child sustain serious neurologic injury which affected his physical and mental development.
A sum of $5.6 million will be paid to the family since they will need constant financial assistance to cater for the child’s medical, therapy and assistive technologies. It also has its way of reminding health care facilities on the need to observe some key medical guidelines in order to avoid such disasters.
