According to a study conducted by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center, current techniques to prevent brain injury in babies born with birth trauma may actually cause harm.

The standard treatment for an infant who is deprived of oxygen due to birth trauma is to supply the infant with 100 percent oxygen. Researchers discovered that mice who were treated with 100 percent oxygen after developing brain damage due to lack of oxygen suffered from higher rates of brain cell death and long-term disabilities, such as cerebral palsy.
