Extract

In spite of major developments in prenatal supervision, perinatal asphyxia remains an important reason for the development of brain damage (18). Epidemiological investigations suggest that perinatal asphyxia actually represents a factor of increasing frequency as a cause of severe cerebral injury (9).
