T his case involved a child who sus- tained a brain injury at birth. The case settled the day it was set to go to trial. Allegedly, the baby’s fetal monitoring had shown signs of hypoxia, but the obstetrician
and hospital staff failed to properly and time- ly address the issue and the newborn was delivered with significant brain damage. The child now suffers from spastic quadriplegia, cortical blindness and seizures.
