Abstract

Those of us who do not conduct labor see many children whose disabilities seem to be related to birth injury. In the nature of things, it is often hard to establish facts. One difficulty is a very real one and can be related to a varying sense of time in various groups of physicians.

Those of us who deal with children regard this period as the beginning of a series of increasingly complicated problems stretching over years. Many of our ideas are the fruit of more or less academic reflection rather than of direct experience. A difference in point of view between obstetrician and pediatrician is perhaps inevitable. As a pediatrician, I believe that it is the duty of the obstetrician to consider whether
