During labor and delivery, the life of the mother and child should take priority over everything else. The doctors and\u00a0hospital<\/a>\u00a0staff are responsible for properly caring for and evaluating the health of the fetus and pregnant mother. One of the events they should watch out for is placental abruption. Placental abruption is the event where the placenta partially or completely separates from the uterus wall prematurely. Because the placenta provides the fetus with key nutrients, this event can leave the baby without nourishment or oxygen.<\/p>\n According to research, an estimated 6.5 pregnancies out of every 1,000 will be affected by placental abruption. It usually occurs in the third trimester but can really happen any time after the 20-week mark. About 50% of placental abruptions happen after 30 weeks and before labor. If the\u00a0doctors fail<\/a>\u00a0to diagnose or treat placental abruption, they can potentially cause injuries and death to the mother or baby.<\/p>\n Power Rogers<\/span> is a premier birth injury law firm in Chicago.

Because it is such a sensitive matter, doctors should constantly examine expectant mothers to look for symptoms that may indicate the placenta has detached from the uterus.<\/p>\n Common symptoms of placental abruption include:<\/strong><\/p>\n If doctors notice these symptoms, it is imperative that they test for placental abruption. Unfortunately, many physicians overlook such traits. If not immediately treated, the separation can cause extensive damage to both mother and child. It can even lead to\u00a0death<\/a>.<\/p>\n Some dangers caused by placental abruption are:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cases of hypertension and trauma can cause placental abruption. If doctors know that their patient suffers from high blood pressure, they need to monitor the fetus and position of the placenta. Similarly, if an expectant mother is involved in a\u00a0car accident<\/a> or similar trauma, they are also at higher risk for placental abruption. If the placenta detaches from the uterus wall, immediate attention is required. Often, if a mother is close to her due date, she may need to go into early labor to save the baby. However, if the doctor does not diagnose the condition in time, it may be too late to save the baby or the mother.<\/p>\n At Power Rogers<\/span>, we have extensive knowledge and experience dealing with failure to treat and diagnose placental abruption cases.
