A national review of maternity care was demanded on Wednesday after an inquiry found many babies died at a NHS trust or were left-brain damaged because of inadequate pregnancy checks and a reluctance to perform caesareans.
The review into Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust investigated 1,592 clinical incidents involving 1,486 families between 2000 and 2019, though the earliest case dates to 1973. Some families suffered more than once.
