Common Birth Injuries to Babies
The midwife and the obstetrician have a duty of care to pregnant women and the unborn child. Many pregnancies are managed exclusively by midwives, but they must know when to call in help from an obstetrician if it's needed. It is frequently the failure or delay in requesting senior obstetric review of pregnancy and labour that results in a birth injury to the mother or baby. Injuries to the baby range include:
• Cerebral Palsy
• Stillbirth and neonatal death
Common Birth Injuries to Mothers
• Failure to identify and treat perineal tears or anal sphincter damage
• Incontinence
Common Failures in Obstetric Care
Sometimes serious abnormalities in children are missed in the months leading up to a birth. This can result in a mother having a severely disabled child when she may have considered terminating her pregnancy if the medical issues had been spotted.
