The incidence and implications of cerebral palsy following potentially avoidable obstetric complications: a preliminary burden of disease study

To determine the extent of cerebral palsy attributable to adverse obstetric events, and estimate the lifetime mortality and morbidity expectations of these individuals relative to age‐matched members of the UK general population.
