[Birth analgesia: late effects on newborn infants? (author's transl)]
Abstract
Based upon scanty literature we discuss, whether unexpected fatal apneic spells of two full-term, apparently vigorous newborn infants at an age of 3 and 37 hours, respectively, may be related to Pethidine (+ Levallorphane) given to their mothers shortly before birth.
