A Cesarean section, also known as a C-section, is a surgical procedure in which a baby is delivered through an incision in the mother’s abdomen and uterus. It is often necessary when there are complications during delivery that make vaginal delivery too risky. However, when a healthcare provider fails to perform a C-section in a timely manner, it can result in birth injuries that may have long-lasting consequences for the baby and the family.

Birth injury lawsuits are complex, and every case is very different. But it is amazing how many birth injury lawsuits follow a pattern of a fetal heart rate that shows a child that is likely struggling to get needed oxygen to feed vital organs and a doctor that does not respond to these alarms by taking immediate steps to deliver the child.

This article will explore the legal implications of a failure to perform a C-section when a baby is in fetal distress and needs to be delivered, explain how these birth injury lawsuits work, and how settlement amounts are calculated.
