A difficult birth or injury to the baby can occur because of the baby's size or the position during labor and delivery. A birth injury is categorized as any type of damage or injury afflicted to an infant's body before, during, or slightly after the child's birth. Complications through the course of pregnancy or labor can result in a wide variety of complications for a newborn baby.

Birth injuries vary greatly - from very minor to being so severe as to cause the death of the infant.

Types of Birth Injuries:

  • Erbs Palsy
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Breech Delivery
  • Delayed Cesarean Section
  • Placenta Abruption
  • Failure to notice Fetal Distress
  • Medical Negligence
  • Brachial Plexus

From the spine to the shoulder, arm, and hand, the bronchial plexus is a network of nerves that conducts signal from the spine. Brachial plexus injuries are caused by to those nerves.

There Are Four Types of Brachial Plexus Injuries:
  • Avulsion, the most severe type, in which the nerve is torn from the spine
  • Rupture, in which the nerve is torn but not at the spinal attachment
  • Neuroma, in which the nerve has torn and healed but scar tissue puts pressure on the injured nerve and prevents it from conducting signals to the muscles
  • Neuropraxia or stretch, in which the nerve has been damaged but not torn.
