ABSTRACT. Objective. Birth asphyxia represents a serious problem worldwide, resulting in;1 million deaths and an equal number of serious sequelae annu-ally. It is therefore important to develop new and better ways to treat asphyxia. Resuscitation after birth asphyxia traditionally has been carried out with 100 % oxygen, and most guidelines and textbooks recommend this; how-ever, the scientific background for this has never been established. On the contrary, theoretic considerations in-dicate that resuscitation with high oxygen concentrations could have detrimental effects. We have performed a series of animal studies as well as one pilot study indi-cating that resuscitation can be performed with room air just as efficiently as with 100 % ox...
