Cerebral Palsy Causes
How does it happen? Many people think that Cerebral Palsy
is a condition that a child is born with. One of the major causes of Cerebral
Palsy is medical negligence.
Children who eventually develop Cerebral Palsy experience injury to their
central nervous system. This injury causes changes in the structure of
the infant's brain. Cerebral Palsy is caused by a part of the brain that
does not develop fully. It can be caused by an event that happens:
Cerebral Palsy Causes:
- Before delivery (the most common time): such as infection, stroke, and metabolic
problems such as diabetes and hyperthyroidism.
- During birth: such as not enough oxygen reaching the fetus. Improper use of
vacuum extraction.
- Just after birth: such as a stroke, infection or injury in the baby.
Congenital Cerebral Palsy results from brain damage during pregnancy
or around the time of birth and can be caused by a variety of conditions
such as:
- Infection
- Jaundice
- Rh incompatibility
- Oxygen depletion
- Stroke
- Toxicity
- Bleeding
- Brain Infections
- Head Injury
Most of the factors listed above can be avoided with the proper medical
care. If a doctor or the hospital makes a mistake during a pregnancy or in childbirth,
the injuries to the child could be severe enough to cause Cerebral Palsy. This
can be grounds for malpractice.
