What is an injury at birth?

Children who are born with complications due to medical malpractice often require extensive medical investigations to determine the cause of the trauma.

Ignoring these symptoms or failing to notice them is the doctor's fault and can have serious consequences for the well-being of the child.

Clinical errors that prevent detection or presented by the pediatrician that cause this condition to advance the misinformation are the fault of the health care provider. Similar conditions that are common in babies who require routine tests are sometimes lost due to human error.
