title: Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage in the term infant. Lessons from the laboratory.
abstract: Term infants who have sustained brain damage from intrauterine asphyxia can often be classified into one of two distinct clinical and radiologic syndromes. The first consists of damage to the cerebral hemispheres. The second consists of damage predominantly involving the basal ganglia and thalamus. Results of studies of asphyxia in experimental animals are presented.
