![]() ![]() If you have suffered a loss due to medical negligence, it’s important to understand your rights in holding the hospital accountable. Mistakes by hospital staff lead to preventable and tragic losses of human life. Common-sense follow up and execution of the plan is also necessary to avoid injury and death. Patient safety requires meticulous attention to details. This could result in serious damage to the baby, including skull fractures, intracranial bleeding or even death. If the medical staff fail to do this in a timely manner, and the diagnosis of the active stage of labor is delayed, the baby’s head could become entrapped. One critical aspect in the execution of this plan is for hospital staff to promptly identify when the mother goes into active labor. If delivery becomes necessary at this stage, your doctor should have a plan to perform delivery by cesarean section. It is common for a fetus at preterm gestational age to be lying in a breech position. Therefore, the standard of care requires that they be delivered by cesarean section. There is a very serious and well-known danger that premature babies in utero who are a breech position (lying vertically, feet first) or transverse position (lying sideways) may experience severe and life-threatening injuries if delivered vaginally. However, those risks are exacerbated when there are additional factors at play – such as preterm labor and unusual fetus position. This method uses gravity to help turn your baby in the correct position for a vaginal birth. When babies are in an OA position, the contractions apply pressure to the occiput, towards the front and on the cervix and the vagina. Left Occiput Transverse, in which the baby’s head is turned toward the mother’s right side, is considered ideal to begin labor babies in this position typically turn Anterior as labor progresses. This is commonly known as back or posterior labor. This means an Occiput Transverse Position is halfway between Posterior Position and Anterior Position. As such, there is always some level of risk involved to both the mother and the baby. When the baby’s head enters the pelvis in the posterior position and labor starts, the main symptom the woman usually feels is pain in her back. ![]() Going through childbirth is a physically traumatic experience. ![]()
