Is neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy serious?

Patient's question:

The child just born doesn't know what's going on, there are always red spots on their body, and they are spitting up milk. Please ask if hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy in newborns is serious.

Doctor's answer:

A newborn with mild subarachnoid hemorrhage due to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requires active treatment. This is to prevent complications and sequelae. Pay attention to cooperate with the treatment, oxygen therapy, and neurotrophic nutrition. The child is troubled by neonatal diseases, so the mother must take the child to seek medical treatment immediately. Avoid using blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is important to observe changes in the child's symptoms and help them receive timely medical treatment as much as possible.
