Medicines
Certain environmental factors, such as drugs and medications taken by pregnant women, could increase the risk for birth defects. Certain birth defects are caused by mutations in chromosomes and genes, and these types of mutations are usually found in families. Other birth defects are caused by specific actions or exposure to chemicals while pregnant. Smoking, drinking alcohol, and taking illegal drugs are a few examples.
Certain birth defects are visible before the baby is born. These include spina-bifida or cleft lip/palate. Other birth defects are only discovered after birth, like congenital heart defects (which affect the way that a baby's heart functions) or balance and gait problems such as cerebral palsy. Many birth problems can be addressed either through surgery or medicine. Some might require assistive devices for example, hearing aids or wheelchairs.
It is crucial for expecting mothers to discuss any medications they take with their healthcare providers during pregnancy. This includes prescription, over-the counter and herbal medicines. It is also important for pregnant women to be aware of the adverse effects chemicals and toxins may have on their bodies. People who are exposed to harmful substances during the initial stages of pregnancy may expose their infants to a greater risk of certain birth defects, including spinal muscular atrophy and fetal alcohol syndrome. The experienced birth defect attorneys at LK have represented children and their parents in lawsuits related to toxic chemical exposure, and also in cases filed due to complications with medical treatment.
Misdiagnosis
A birth defect can impact nearly any body part and have a significant impact on function or appearance. Some are more obvious than others, but they can be equally serious and life-altering. The majority of parents are informed about the existence of birth defects within the first year following birth, or perhaps a few years later.
Depending on the degree of the defect, it could require urgent medical treatment or surgery to ease symptoms and improve function. In the event of a delay in diagnosis, it could also have serious consequences. A medical malpractice lawyer who is experienced in dealing with medical malpractice can help determine the worth of your claim.
A successful medical negligence case will compensate your family and you for your losses. A knowledgeable birth defect lawyer can assist you through the legal process and allow you to concentrate on your family's future.

Regular blood tests, such as hemoglobin electrophoresis, revealed that the Mother was diagnosed with beta Thalassemia.

Instead, her obstetricians wrongly misinterpreted the measurements of nuchal translucency of the ultrasound and prevented the mother from knowing she was pregnant with a child at risk of developing Down syndrome and a heart condition.
