Perinatal Asphyxia

by Alberto Lacoius-Petruccelli

In pediatric service for more than fifty years, honored by Cornell Medical Center and others, Lacoius-Petrucelli is eminently qualified to examine this topic. He describes the crucial stages of birth and their consequences; new evaluative, risk-preventive technology; and assuring a good beginning--critical in the first five minutes of life.
