As detailed by the NCBI in their resource “Birth Trauma”, neonatal birth trauma refers to injuries sustained by newborns during the delivery process. These injuries may include fractures, nerve damage such as brachial plexus injuries, or hemorrhages. While some cases heal quickly, others may lead to long-term complications that require extensive medical care.

Birth trauma not only impacts a child’s health but also places emotional and financial strain on families. In some cases, trauma may be linked to preventable medical errors.
