Medical malpractices in obstetrics are one of the main health concerns

since in addition to the mortalities and morbidities caused for the two
susceptible groups of mothers and neonates; they may lead to difficulties
for the accused gynecologists and midwives in returning to their routine
medical career and giving services to the patients. Here are some cases:

1. Julie Richards, an experienced NHS midwife was

struck off after making 'catastrophic mistakes' which led to
the death of a baby boy. A disciplinary hearing was told
Julie Richards’ 'gross failure' caused baby Noah Tyler to
be starved of oxygen during his birth. Noah never
recovered and died aged 10 months because of errors
made during his birth at the University Hospital of Wales,
in Cardiff.

2. Lisa Barrett was charged after a protracted investigation into the

deaths of Tully Kavanagh in October 2011 and an unnamed baby in
December 2012, with the matter adjourned until February at a brief
appearance in Adelaide Magistrates Court on Thursday. The case
against a former midwife charged with the manslaughter of two
babies during home births is "unique", a court has been told.

3. Caroline Flint, the radical independent midwife who became

the first elected president of the Royal College of Midwives, is
facing a disciplinary body today on seven charges of professional
misconduct relating to a baby girl she delivered who died. The
parents had wanted a home birth, but because of the breech
position of the baby the mother had to be transferred to hospital.
Ms Flint is accused of failing to give the parents sufficient
information that might have led the mother to have extra scans
during the pregnancy and possibly opt for a caesarian delivery,
failing to monitor mother and child properly, failing to get the help
of a doctor when it was needed, and keeping inadequate notes.
