Brain Rescue

A very difficult birth process may decrease a baby's oxygen flow. Sometimes, severe oxygen deprivation can lead to brain damage. Rapid but controlled brain and body cooling is sometimes able to prevent cerebral palsy, a form of brain damage.

Cohen Children's Medical Center has one of the most experienced regional brain rescue centers in the United States.
