Cerebral Hypoxia

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Cerebral Hypoxia Attorneys

Birth injuries can occur before, during or immediately following the birthing process. Procedures should be in place to ensure the mom and baby are kept safe during labor and delivery. This includes monitoring the fetus' oxygen through the use of fetal monitoring strips. Lack of oxygen to the baby can result in cerebral hypoxia, or lack of oxygen to the brain. Cerebral hypoxia ultimately results in cerebral palsy.

Helping you and your baby cope with a brain injury

At Ryan Bisher Ryan Phillips & Simons, when a baby's life is forever changed by cerebral hypoxia, we understand the devastating consequences of such condition. While pursuing compensation cannot reverse your child's injury, it can help you and your family financially. It can hold medical professionals responsible for the negligence that occurs in the delivery room, and forces the responsible parties to pay for the medical care the child needs.

Another name for lack of oxygen is anoxia. Lack of oxygen can result in cerebral palsy, mental retardation and disability. In many situations, performing a C-section in a timely manner may prevent the lack of oxygen. For families now affected by another's carelessness or inattentiveness, this can be devastating.

Although pursuing compensation in a medical malpractice lawsuit can be difficult, our firm has the resources and experience to successfully represent you and your baby. We are committed to your case from beginning to end. We know that doctors, nurses and others are required to follow a standard of care.
