Does curing neonatal acidosis lead to sequelae?

Patient's question:

My baby is 8 days old, still in the incubator, and hasn't woken up yet. The doctors say the vital signs are stable, but they mention the child has acidosis. They say the inflammation in the blood has been controlled and that the ventilator can be removed to perform an MRI. You tell me, will the child have a chance to recover? Will there be any long-term effects?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you mentioned, the child may have potential sequelae, and there may be a possibility of brain damage in this case. It is recommended to perform a brain MRI before making a judgment. Based on the current situation, the possibility of brain damage is relatively high. The above is the advice for the question "Doctor, my baby is 8 days old," and I hope it will be helpful to you. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery!
