Ordering Medical Records In A Fetal Injury or Death Case
When you are investigating a fetal injury or fetal death case, it is important that you review the fetal monitoring strips. As I mentioned in a previous entry, the fetal monitoring strips provide valuable information such as how the fetus was tolerating labor and delivery. We have found that typically hospitals do not insert the fetal strips into the mother's main hospital chart. Therefore, remember to specifically request the fetal monitoring strips when requesting a copy of the complete chart.
