Patient's question:
A 5-month-old baby cannot lift their head, lacks focus in their eyes, and often clenches their fists. Where is the best place to treat cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral Ischemia and Hypoxia: In patients with cerebral palsy, 20% are caused by asphyxia and birth injuries. The factors leading to ischemia and hypoxia include:① Maternal factors: such as pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, heart failure, severe bleeding, anemia, shock, or drug abuse, drug overdose, etc.;
② Placental factors: such as placental abruption, placenta previa, placental necrosis, or placental dysfunction, etc.;
③ Umbilical cord blood flow obstruction: such as cord prolapse, compression, knotting, or entanglement, etc.;
④ Abnormal delivery process: such as breech delivery, dystocia, instrumental delivery (forceps), or the use of anesthetics, etc.;
⑤ Neonatal factors: In addition to asphyxia, there are many cardiopulmonary dysfunction diseases. Such as: congenital heart disease, respiratory distress syndrome, circulatory failure, polycythemia.
