When the fetus was born, it was pulled and fractured. The father sued the hospital in the name of the baby

Ms. Yin in Liuhe District, Nanjing, was pregnant until July the year before last. At the end of that month, her amniotic fluid broke, and her husband rushed to send her to a hospital in Dachang. After the hospital examination, the doctor said that the fetus was breech position with feet down, belonging to dystocia The position of the fetus requires a caesarean section, and I suggest Mr. Qin make a decision on caesarean section. At that time, Mr. Qin thought that his wife had a second child this time, and the first child should have a natural birth. This time, she should also have a natural birth. But the doctor said that if the child has a big head, it will be dangerous. Mr. Qin hesitated, and the doctor urged him several times to say that his life would be in danger if he did not have a caesarean section, and comforted him that the operation was safe. Mr. Qin agreed to sign a caesarean section.  

The child's right leg femur is a drawback to the child's smooth birth fracture The couple spent a lot of money on going back and forth for several days to heal their wounds, and even staying up all night to take care of the baby. They also believe that the child delayed the injection hepatitis B The best time for vaccination, the hospital is wrong. They repeatedly failed to negotiate with the hospital, so in the name of the baby, they took the hospital to court to claim compensation for medical expenses, nursing costs, etc.

Although the hospital explained that at that time, the fetus was breech position, buttocks down, and head up. If this fetal position was to be delivered naturally, there would be risks of spinal cord injury, meningeal tear, asphyxia, and so on. The hospital only recommended cesarean section. Mr. Qin consulted many medical books. He thought that although his wife's physical condition at that time met the requirements of a caesarean section, it was not necessary to have a caesarean section to give birth to a child, and it was OK to have a natural birth. The hospital let them choose caesarean section, on the one hand, to save time; On the other hand, benefit factors are taken into consideration, because caesarean section costs more than natural delivery.

The couple also believed that many babies were born by caesarean section, but their baby's leg was broken, which was because the doctors were not skilled enough. The hospital explained that during the operation, Ms. Yin's amniotic fluid became turbid and meconium appeared. The baby was at risk of suffocation and cerebral palsy. In this case, the doctor should take out the child as soon as possible. In addition, the parturient has uterine contraction. At that time, the fetus first came out of the buttock and left leg, and the right leg was in the uterus because of small space and high uterine contraction pressure. The doctor needed to make efforts to get the right leg out of the child as soon as possible. Life was more important than health, and the doctor's practice was to protect the child. Mr. Qin disagrees with this statement. He said that his wife's amniotic fluid was clear when she was admitted to the hospital for examination, so why did it become meconium? He thought that the hospital had falsified the medical records.

This lawsuit has been fought since last April. Mr. Qin has also applied to the provincial medical association for medical damage identification. It was written in the appraisal that the hospital suggested that the caesarean section should comply with the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for Ms. Yin's fetus. As for the doctor pulling the child's right leg, the appraisal also believes that it conforms to the operating specifications.

The husband and wife disagreed with this appraisal opinion. Yesterday, when the Liuhe Court heard the case, the plaintiff expressed his opinion in the court. The case will continue to be heard. Correspondent Lu Yan
