A new medical device is being used to help prevent the consequences of birth injury. The device is called the Olympic Cool-Cap machine. It is being used to treat healthy, full term infants who have suffered birth trauma due to lack of oxygen.

The lack of oxygen during birth can result in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, which is attributed to causing cerebral palsy or even fatality. The new medical device functions as a way to lower a baby’s body temperature after suffering from birth injury to help prevent the devastating consequences of lack of oxygen.
The Olympic Cool-Cap machine is the only medical device of its kind to be approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration.
Because the medical device is relatively new, long term studies have not shown the devices effectiveness, although the manufacturers of the device and the FDA hope that it will help thousands of babies a year.
Birth injuries are often the result of medical negligence. Birth trauma attorneys are working on cases in which life-long disabilities or fatalities have resulted from birth injuries.
