Hypothermia therapy for the treatment of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy has been shown to be effective in protecting the brain, reducing mortality and neurological sequelae in asphyxiated infants.

Neonatal resuscitation is a necessary procedure for babies in cases where the mother has a chronic illness, a history of miscarriage, preeclampsia, labor complications, abnormal fetal position, premature birth, multiple pregnancies, umbilical cord prolapse, prolonged labor, ruptured membranes, amniotic fluid mixed with meconium,...

If not diagnosed and treated promptly, neonatal asphyxia can be life-threatening or leave serious sequelae. Therefore, neonatal resuscitation plays an extremely important role.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), birth asphyxia or birth asphyxia occurs in 2 to 10 out of every 1,000 babies born at term, and more in premature births. WHO estimates that 4 million neonatal deaths occur each year due to birth asphyxia, accounting for 38% of deaths in children under 5 years of age.
