Episode-36-Why Babies Die After birth

Did you know that while 1 out of every 30 newborns born in the so-called resource-poor country dies, 1 out of every 250 newborns dies in rich countries?

In this podcast, Dr. Anyoha, a pediatrician who has worked in the Neonatal Intensive care unit for decades, shares some of the reasons that newborns die, especially babies born in Resource-poor countries. 

 Infections are common causes of death in newborns, as well as lack of oxygen before, during, or after birth. Premature babies, because they have problems with breathing and temperature control, run the risk of dying in resource-poor countries.

From an experienced obstetrician, a skilled pediatrician, and a standard hospital, Dr. Anyoha also shares what resources to look for when expecting a baby.
