[Proposal for definition of the birth injury].
We recommend to define the "birth trauma" as all influences, which injure the fetus under birth in any pattern. These birth traumatical agents we divide in the group of predominant mechanical agents and in the group of predominant metabolic components (hypoxia). This definition is explained and justified in a matter-of-fact way. We discuss the advantages of its application in practice.
