Fetal hypoxia during delivery is one of the most likely causes of brain cell damage, resulting in infantile cerebral palsy (ICP), encephalopathy and mental retardation [1,2]. Fetal hypoxia has been shown to occur most frequently in children subjected to surgical delivery (15-20%) and when physiological birth is prolonged beyond 12 hours in both cephalic and breech fetuses [2]. Typically, birth asphyxia develops in the first or second period of birth [3]. In severe cases, the diagnosis of neonatal asphyxia is made after birth only.
