Birth Abnormalities

Birth abnormalities can be described as an abnormality present at birth which results in physical or mental disability. These can include but are not limited to, problems with limbs, heart and spinal cord. Other abnormalities commonly observed include those affecting the face such as cleft lip and palate.
The use of sophisticated ultrasound scanning has made the detection of birth defects prior to delivery a lot easier but this is dependent upon the ultra-sonographer performing the scan correctly. If performed correctly it can detect many abnormalities before birth.
Compensation in these cases can include the extra costs associated with caring for a child with a significant disability, which can include both mental and physical disabilities. In these types of cases the aim of compensation is to provide financial compensation for the disabled person, as long-term care is normally required.
