Perinatal injury refers to physical harm that occurs to a baby during the perinatal period, which spans from the 20th week of pregnancy to the first month after birth. This type of injury can result from various factors, including complications during labor and delivery, maternal health issues, or medical negligence. Common examples include brachial plexus injury and cerebral palsy. The consequences of perinatal injury can vary widely, affecting a child's development and quality of life. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing these injuries, and families may seek support from healthcare professionals, including pediatricians and physical therapists, to help their child reach their full potential.
