How Cerebral Palsy Occurs

While cerebral palsy, also known as CP, may be the result of a birth defect, it can also be caused by medical negligence. Cerebral palsy can occur when a baby is strangled in the birth canal. The brain may asphyxiate in the womb, or there may not be enough oxygen in the blood. A doctor exercising reasonable care should be able to recognize signs of fetal distress and perform an emergency C-Section. Unfortunately, inexperienced doctors do not always recognize these signs. Even an experienced doctor might be impatient or careless.
