Brain Injuries and Medical Malpractice

A brain injury is a type of injury that is sustained either due to physical trauma or a lack of oxygen to the brain, resulting in temporary or permanent injury. Brain injuries may also occur to infection or disease. A person suffering from brain injury may experience any one or many of numerous side effects, including memory loss, personality changes, loss of motor skills, language or speech difficulties, loss of reasoning abilities, and loss of bodily function.

At times, brain injuries may result from medical malpractice. One commonly known source of brain injuries in infants result from birth injuries: trauma during labor or delivery. Cerebral Palsy, mental retardation, microcephaly and developmental delays may all be linked to birth injuries. Other brain injuries may result from negligence or malpractice during surgery or in the diagnosis or treatment of a patient. When medical malpractice causes brain injury, this may be grounds for a civil lawsuit against the responsible hospital, surgeon, doctor or nurse.
