Birth injuries can occur during pregnancy, labor, or delivery when medical professionals fail to meet the accepted standard of care. These injuries can have lifelong consequences for both the child and their family, often requiring extensive medical treatment and ongoing care.

Medical negligence during childbirth can result in various serious conditions:

• Cerebral Palsy
• Erb's Palsy and Brachial Plexus Injuries
• Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE)
• Shoulder Dystocia
• Spinal Cord Injuries
• Facial Paralysis
• Bone Fractures
• Brain Damage from Oxygen Deprivation

Redwood City is home to several prominent medical facilities where births take place:

• Kaiser Permanente Redwood City Medical Center
• Sequoia Hospital
• Stanford Medicine Outpatient Center

According to recent medical research published in the Journal of Perinatal Medicine, approximately 7 out of every 1,000 births in the United States involve some form of birth injury. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that birth injuries are often preventable with proper medical care and monitoring during pregnancy and delivery.
