    Neonatal jaundice is a common condition which is usually harmless, requires no treatment or responds to phototherapy. On rare but tragic occasions it can cause long-term brain damage with physical and psychological consequences for the family, or death. NHS Resolution reviewed twenty claims for injury secondary to neonatal jaundice which were notified to NHS Resolution between 2001 and 2011 and identified key themes and most common risk factors.

    This area of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists website provides guidance for healthcare professionals on obtaining consent from women within obstetrics and gynaecology services. It provides easy access to all procedure-specific consent documentation and gives advice on how best to support women’s decision-making about their care.

    In the UK, each year over 1000 babies die or are left with severe brain injury, not because they are born too soon or too small, or have a congenital abnormality, but because something goes wrong during labour. The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists does not accept that all of these are unavoidable tragedies, and with the Each baby counts project, they are aiming to reduce this unnecessary suffering and loss of life by 50% by 2020.

    Newborn babies may need extra care in a neonatal intensive care unit or special care baby unit if they were born prematurely or if they need care for a particular health condition. Babies and infants that need long-term care can be transferred to a local unit or discharged to receive care at home. A baby with complex health needs may move between distinct areas of care or 'pathways'. This Care Quality Commission (CQC) review looked at how risks for newborn babies are identified and managed and at the care for infants in the community who need respiratory support. This review draws on one particular case that had a tragic outcome for a baby and her parents. Elizabeth Dixon was born prematurely but suffered brain damage as a result of missed high blood pressure. She died shortly before her first birthday in 2001, when there was a failure to correctly maintain her tracheostomy tube. While this review was not an investigation of the specific circumstances of Elizabeth's case, it drew on this to examine current practice, systems and guidance.
