Placental Abruption and Cerebral Palsy
A placental abruption occurs when the placenta separates from the uterine wall. This can put both the mother and child at great risk.
If a placental abruption occurs the child may be deprived of oxygen. This depravation can lead to brain damage and cerebral palsy.
Below is an excellent video discussing risk factors, causes and treatments of a placental abruption.
