Infant Medical Malpractice Case Settles
Posted on Apr 2, 2010 8:15pm PDT
A woman gave birth to a baby girl, but during the delivery process one of the baby's shoulders became stuck and the doctor did several maneuvers before being able to free the shoulder and deliver the baby. As a result, the baby was born with brachial plexus to her right arm, which has caused limited use of her arm. The case has now settled for $500,000 against the doctor, while a claim against the hospital and nurse settled for an undisclosed amount before trial.
