What To Do If Your Premature Infant Was Harmed by Baby Formula

If a family has a child that’s been diagnosed with NEC and it’s a very unique and terrible, diagnosis to receive. So it would be unusual if you didn’t know this already. But if you have a child, who was born prematurely, who was hospitalized, was in the NICU, and has a diagnosis of NEC, I would absolutely contact an attorney to discuss, your options. Sadly, premature children who get diagnosed with NEC, thirty percent, forty percent of those children die, they pass away. Another thirty to forty percent require surgical intervention to repair the damage done to the GI tract. And there’s a fortunate small percentage where the prognosis is much better and they get out without much medical intervention.
