Deprivation of Oxygen – Babies and children

Deprivation of oxygen to a baby’s brain either before, during or after delivery can result in brain damage.  Lack of oxygen can cause a number of different types of brain damage.  A baby may suffer from HIE ( Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy), Cerebral Palsy, and other types of brain injury.  Sometimes, the injuries are so severe that the baby will require 24-hour case for the rest of his/her life.

If it can be proved that the brain injury was avoidable, and was caused because of negligent care, then a claim may provide the financial means to make improvements to his/her quality of life and his/her carer.

It can also make a huge difference to your life if you are their carer.
