Risk Factors for Oxygen Deprivation During Birth

Maternal Health - Conditions that affect a mother's health during pregnancy can increase the risk of oxygen deprivation during birth, such as preeclampsia, diabetes, and high blood pressure.

Fetal Health - Fetal health conditions that can increase the risk of oxygen deprivation during birth include umbilical cord abnormalities, growth restriction, and placental abruption.

Infection - Infections can cause inflammation in the mother or baby, leading to oxygen deprivation during birth.

Delivery Complications - Delivery complications, such as a prolonged labor, can increase the risk of oxygen deprivation.

Medications - Medications given to the mother or baby during labor can also increase the risk of oxygen deprivation.
