They were depressed at birth, developed seizures on the first day of life, and followed clinical courses compatible with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. However, the umbilical cord vessel pH and blood gases were normal. The children are now severely retarded and have cerebral palsy. These cases prove that the events of labor and delivery may not be responsible for all cases of brain damage in surviving children.
