title: [Pathophysiology and therapy of perinatal asphyxia in a mature newborn].
abstract: Based on modern knowledge about the pathophysiology of perinatal asphyxia a new concept of therapy is discussed. Besides cardiopulmonary resuscitation for the initial shock reaction the therapy of secondary complications according to the multi-system-reaction is emphasized. After the description of the correlation of partial asphyxia and the development of neurological defect syndromes in animal models the necessity of a "cerebral resuscitation" is mentioned.
