darkhorse, could you pls explain the answer for this Q.
there is no explanation...this is statistics...contrary to popular belief that birth asphyxia contributes to many of CP,studies have shown that its only a minor contributor....the choices given are the major causes which also include infections and intrauterine bleeding..reference..kaplan pediatrics page 194//2004
