Management of birth injuries

Michael R Uhing. Pediatr Clin North Am. 2004 Aug.

Abstract

Birth injuries are a significant cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Although they are frequently associated with traumatic delivery, birth injuries often occur in normal spontaneous deliveries in the absence of any risk factors. This article discusses the diagnosis and management of the most common birth injuries encountered by health care providers caring for newborns.
