Sometime oxygen shortages that occur during pregnancy can cause brain damage and birth asphyxia. It is estimated that an inadequate supply of oxygen to the brain causes around ten percent of all cerebral palsy cases. Many causes of cerebral palsy can be prevented with the simple steps of good health care. In some cases negligent medical professional are responsible for contributing to cases of cerebral palsy.

I agree with Alex’s last sentence. Of the children I treat, a majority are caused by negligent medical professionals. The most effective way to cut down the number of cases of CP (and hopefully put me out of business), is to provide better medical training to medical recruits of a higher calibre and to make them accountable when they cause a case of CP.
