Roughly 60% of all newborns will get jaundice. If the jaundice is severe and isn’t promptly treated, toxic levels of bilirubin in the infant’s brain can lead to kernicterus, a severe form of brain damage. Bilirubin is the yellow-orange by-product formed in the liver while breaking down old red blood cells; it’s the reason that the skin and eyes of people with jaundice turn yellow.
Kernicterus complications can have a significant impact on your child's quality of life. Fortunately, children can often improve significantly with early and expert intervention. However, these costs can be a financial burden. If your child developed kernicterus as the result of medical negligence, the Birth Injury Center may be able to assist you. The lawyers at Birth Injury Center can help you seek compensation so you can focus on what matters most: the health and wellbeing of your child.
You can learn more about causes, treatments, family forums, parent support groups, and more at birthinjurycenter.org. The Birth Injury Center is here to aid you, offering consultations and abundant resources. For your own peace of mind, please visit:
