Hypoglycemia Georgia Birth Injury Attorney
Neonatal hypoglycemia occurs when blood glucose (“blood sugar”) drops to an abnormally low level, causing long-term injury such as cerebral palsy or other neurological damage in infants. Harm can come to the mother as well. Low blood sugar causes brain starvation, which leads to organ shutdown, resulting in loss of cognitive abilities, including speech. These conditions do have warning signs, both before and after birth occurs. Failure to heed the signs is an act of medical negligence on the part of physician, pediatrician, nursing staff and the hospital, if injury or wrongful death occurs.
Our investigation is thorough because of our medical background in addition to our expertise in the field of neo-natal law. We review all records of your care during pregnancy and delivery to determine if your medical care providers acted appropriately, such as conducting a Whipple Triad diagnostic and other blood tests, as well as taking into consideration any other medications you were/are taking. Misdiagnosis can also lead to treatment of non-existent or non-related conditions such as depression and schizophrenia or gastrointestinal problems.
