The incidence of birth asphyxia was 3.0% (2027\/67\u2009602) and the case fatality rate was 16.8% (339\/2022). The risk factors for birth asphyxia were uterine rupture, pre\u2010eclampsia\/eclampsia, abruptio placentae\/placenta praevia, birth trauma, fetal distress and congenital anomaly. The following factors were independently associated with a risk of birth asphyxia: maternal age, woman's education level, husband's occupation, parity, antenatal care, referral status, cadre of health professional present at the birth, sex of the newborn, birthweight and mode of birth. Common adverse neonatal outcomes included: admission to a special care baby unit (SCBU), 88.4%; early neonatal death, 14.2%; neonatal sepsis, 4.5%; and respiratory distress, 4.4%.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The incidence of reported birth asphyxia in the participating facilities was low, with around one in six or seven babies with birth asphyxia dying.
