About prognosis:

The 'prognosis' of Asphyxia usually refers to the likely outcome of Asphyxia. The prognosis of Asphyxia may include the duration of Asphyxia, chances of complications of Asphyxia, probable outcomes, prospects for recovery, recovery period for Asphyxia, survival rates, death rates, and other outcome possibilities in the overall prognosis of Asphyxia. Naturally, such forecast issues are by their nature unpredictable.
