Intrauterine Growth Retardation

Nationwide Representation in Medical Malpractice Claims

Intrauterine growth retardation is a medical condition involving the abnormal growth of a baby in the womb. Instead of growing at a normal, healthy rate, the baby stays small due to a smaller than normal size of the placenta. During prenatal care, it is of the utmost importance that a doctor properly evaluates the mother’s weight gain and the size and weight of the baby to be sure it is developing properly. If any abnormality is noticed, the doctor should take further action, such as an ultrasound, to make a more accurate assessment of the baby’s growth.

Although many babies can be delivered without any initial problems or long-term consequences from intrauterine growth retardation, the doctor will need to be careful to help prevent serious birth injury from occurring, particularly brain injury due to a lack of oxygen to the baby’s brain during delivery. For this reason, the doctor may need to perform a c-section to avoid serious injuries.

Intrauterine Growth Retardation and Medical Malpractice

Contact a birth injury attorney at the Law Offices of Dr. Bruce G. Fagel & Associates today if your child has suffered a serious birth injury. The doctor may have failed to diagnose intrauterine growth retardation, may have failed to perform a c-section in time or may have acted negligently in some other way, and may have therefore been the cause of your child’s suffering. If this is the case, you have the right to take legal action and seek financial compensation for medical care, pain and suffering, and much more.

Our firm is dedicated to providing only the highest quality legal representation to our clients. Intrauterine growth retardation is a serious issue that may affect you and your family for years to come. By working with a lawyer and taking proper legal action, you can bring the negligent doctor or hospital to justice.
