Newborn anoxic brain injuries most frequently are the result of a birth asphyxia, which is a general phrase used to describe an infant’s inadequate air supply before, during or immediately after the delivery. Birth asphyxia is often caused by insufficient oxygen in the mother's blood, complications relating to the placenta, umbilical cord strangulation or lack of uterine relaxation prior to the delivery. |
