Hypoxia is a medical condition resulting from a lack of oxygen. It is a leading cause of serious birth injuries and brain damaged babies. At Rheingold Giuffra Ruffo & Plotkin LLP, we have handled many cases in which brain damage in babies was caused by negligence on the part of obstetricians, obstetrical nurses, and other medical professionals.
