Abstract
Two neonates who went into acute hypovolaemic shock due to a tight nuchal cord were successfully resuscitated. The occurrence of this life threatening complication in two low risk pregnancies emphasizes the importance of having staff trained in resuscitation immediately available in the delivery unit.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
