Should I contact a advocate. . . surrounded by regard to medical malpractice?
I was 36 weeks and 3 days pregnant with hypertension issues for weeks before- my blood pressure be really high at my check up that day my OB sent me over to the hospital to be induced. I be started on cytotech and then pitocin and then subsidise to cytotech then back to pitocin.
this started at 7 pm on a tuesday night- I finally started to really show signs of dialation on thursday morning ( i did not want a c-section and my Dr know that) I eventually had my Daughter on friday morning at 1:46 am roughly 56 hours of labor.
when her head come out the cord was wrapped around her shoulder and neck and when the Dr. tried to verbs it around her head it snapped- blood went everywhere, He pulled her shoulders out like greased lightning then got it clamped but she be purple and not breathing 1 min apgar score was a 2 after by 10 mins it was up to a 7 she rebounded but spent some tine surrounded by the nicu 4 days ( i think it was alot to do next to the hospital covering their own a$$) although she was jaundiced and needed some time under the billi lights- she seem to be a healthy new born immediately but the neonatologist told us that there is no way to explain to if there is any long term effects until we get some developmental milestones to see how she develops
she is only 12 days old immediately and we are at home- this is my first child and it was a traumatic experience for my husband and I.
I was told that I should not enjoy been left to labor that long because the stress that it puts on mother tot and the cord- Had I been told that I was risking my baby's vigour or that something like that could have happen I would have had no problems doing what be best and having the c-section that would have be alot easier to have a healthy infant from the very start! I was with the sole purpose trying to do what I thought was best and the Dr. never told me that I should do anything other than what I be already doing- In my opinion he needed to have drawn a dash somewhere and told me that things might not happen the way I considered necessary and for the safety of myself and the baby we needed to hold the c-section- I also had some problems with deliver my placenta and lost alot of blood almost enough to need a transfusion.
Sorry so long but hopefully someone have some insight on this subject
Answers:
I am not a parent and do not have children. And aside from my grousing about the ineptitude of frequent physicians today and the medical schools in which they train, I believe that so much falls to the the institutes within which these doctors and executive administrators work.
However, what catches my attention most is the following: " Had I be told that I was risking my baby's health or that something similar to that could have happened I would own had no problems doing what was best and have the c-section that would have been alot easier to own a healthy baby from the particularly start! " There appears a communication failure first of all. I penny-pinching, was there romantic deception at play here -- wherein they knew full ably that they knew the apt and proper ways all the while but chose not to come forward near the truth, preferring to abide their own conveniences, -- for whatever reason?
You cannot know if this be the case, however. I suppose that 'maybe' a woman physician would have better discerned how to work next to you and your husband under such emergent conditions, and who would, I think, accept greater insight on what to do. Yet, we can only speculate on that, too.
But this does appear to have be a communication lapse, in which on one hand, you did not know the question needing asked. And the delivery team did not share that there might be a more apt method to employ at the outset. After adjectives, you were in labor 56 hours: that is to say over 2 days, in which some staff person could ably have deliberated on what is best given the adjectives difficulty of the labor.
We have to wonder what would be the indication if more perceptive physicians and nurses be in the field of obstetrics and neonatology; i.e., should 56 hours of pain and stress be thought proper for 'anyone' to endure? When a mother and contained by this case a father as well do not know what track is best to take, the responsibility ultimately falls to the medical team itself to determine the best protocol -- contained by fact, even more.
I believe that you would do well to verbalize with people commonly -- if your nervous systems can bear near re-living this over and over again, and you both can keep anxieties at bay. Therefore, progress and talk to other mothers, talk to medical social workers and citizens generally; not so much as regards the legitimate aspects, but rather just to win more grounding and consolation, and to make better sense of this and be afforded some form of validation. Then talk to the labour doctor himself and the delivery staff so that you can get a concrete human feel and insight as to just what go awry and what shall be done about this aside from the usual neonatal care.
With that you can digest what a moment ago occurred, then better discern if you and your husband should choice to proceed with litigation -- which may not entail financial compensation but to some extent this time round good communication in codicil to comprehensive follow-throughs beyond what is the usual regarding your infant's progress, which at this point must be of paramount importance to you and your husband. Seeking financial reparation alone may capably be a little too hasty at this juncture for you own sanity's sake. However, you both would be wise to hold begun establishing a solid basis for adjectives your sakes beforehand should unforeseeable complications develop.
I did not want a c-section and the doctor knew that. The doctor followed your wishes. The when something went wrong you want to sue. Sorry but I do not see this as medical malpractice. The doctor could not know the cord be around the baby. This is not uncommon. It seem more of a case of no communication between you and your doctor. As to the baby have long term effects because of this. All preemies could have long residence effects just because they are preemies. No one can tell you they will be artificial by the length of labor. My twin grandsons were deliver at 36 and we were told they could have problems but have to wait for the development milestones. I hope adjectives goes well for you and your child.
