AB  - It  is  widely  accepted  that  10%  of  all  newborns  require  some  assistance  to  begin  and  maintain  normal  breathing  and  that  1%  require  aggressive  resuscitation.  Thus,  using  the  national  birth  rate  data,  annually  400,000  newborns  need  some  help  during  the  perinatal  period,  40,000  per  year  require  expert  assistance  to  reverse  profound  cardiorespiratory  depression.1  Of  these,  approximately  1200  per  year  will  have  severe  hypoxic  ischemic  encephalopathy  (HIE).  According  to  the  World  Health  Organization,  more  than  722,000  children  died  from  birth  asphyxia  and  birth  trauma  worldwide  in  2004.  An  estimated  50%  to  75%  of  infants  with  severe  HIE  will  die,  with  55%  of  these  deaths  occurring  in  the  first  month.
