If a C-Section Should Have Been Performed Earlier...

Many pregnancies require a caesarean section for the health and safety of the mother and baby. Unfortunately, a delayed c-section can cause great harm to both baby and mother, resulting in potential lifelong effects.

The Doctors Should Have Known...

During labor and delivery, the mother is connected to an electronic fetal heart rate monitoring device which is used to assess the well-being of the fetus. This device tracks the heart rate of the baby, as well as the contractions of the mother.

During labor, the fetal heart rate monitoring device will track any signs of abnormalities in the baby's heart rate. It is the physician's responsibility to react to those signs, and if necessary, perform an immediate c-section.

There are other tests that are often performed to assess fetal well-being, including a biophysical profile and an amniotic fluid index. If these tests are abnormal, a c-section may be advisable.
