Hypoxic brain injuries are caused by lack of oxygen (hypoxia) to the brain. Depending on the duration of oxygen loss, these injuries may be temporary or incur permanent damage. Personal injury cases related to hypoxic brain injuries are often associated with birth injuries or other forms of medical negligence, as well as near-drowning incidents. Any situation that reduces the flow of oxygen to the brain can result in hypoxic brain injuries, and these injuries can also be sustained as a result of a motor vehicle accident or use of a defective product that disrupts the oxygen flow to the brain.
