What are the reasons that can lead to newborn asphyxia?

Patient's question:

The doll was suffocated due to lack of oxygen at birth. Fortunately, it was rescued in time, and there were no major issues. However, I am worried that the fear and shock may leave some aftereffects that could affect the baby. I would like to ask what causes can lead to the baby's suffocation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this parent. Baby asphyxia is a condition that causes brain damage in infants due to factors such as prematurity, infant hypoxia-ischemia, high jaundice, or umbilical cord. If a baby experiences asphyxia, it can easily lead to cerebral palsy or other brain-related diseases. Therefore, during the daily care of the baby, it is essential to carefully observe the baby's condition. If anything unusual is noticed, it is necessary to consult a hospital to avoid delaying the treatment.
