Early Signs of HIE (Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy) Every Parent Should Know

Описание: Early Signs of HIE (Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy) Every Parent Should Know

Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) is a serious birth injury that occurs when a baby’s brain does not receive enough oxygen during labor and delivery. Early recognition of HIE symptoms is critical — it can dramatically affect a child’s long-term outcome and access to early intervention services.

In this video, Houston birth injury attorney Adam Funk explains the early warning signs of HIE that parents should watch for immediately after birth, including:

• Low Apgar scores
• Newborn seizures, which are often subtle
• Abnormal muscle tone (floppiness or rigidity)
• Breathing or feeding difficulties
• Early organ dysfunction, which may signal oxygen deprivation

If your baby experienced complications at birth and you’re questioning whether medical malpractice or birth trauma occurred, understanding these signs is an important first step. Early intervention — medically and legally — can make a life-changing difference.

📞 If you believe your child may have suffered HIE due to medical negligence, contact Adam Funk for a confidential case review.
