We determined its incidence and persistence of disability and evaluated whether its occurrence could be predicted by maternal characteristics or partographic analysis in a large cohort of recent cases. STUDY DESIGN: During the years 1994 through 1998, all infants with neonatal evidence of obstetric brachial more...
