causes. This is called “hypoxia,” if there is
minimal oxygen flow, or “anoxia” if it is
cut off altogether. Even if medical
professionals can reverse this mistake,
the brain may be irreparably damaged.

birth injury due to medical negligence.

Blunt trauma from falling or sliding
objects on worksites is a common
cause of brain injuries. The risk of
