Sullivan Papain Block McManus Coffinas & Cannavo P.C. recently obtained a $4.55 million settlement for a delay in delivering an infant plaintiff and inadequate monitoring of fetal monitoring strips. The mother of the plaintiff presented to the hospital with decreased fetal movement. She was observed and allowed to be removed from the monitor to walk around for about an hour or so, during which there was no monitoring.
Approximately an hour and a half after that, there were signs of potential problems on the fetal monitoring strips that were not acted upon quickly enough. The infant was born by emergency C-section and now has substantial neurological problems.
