Patient's question:
At birth, there was no breathing. After about fifteen minutes of rescue, spontaneous breathing gradually established, accompanied by crying sounds. At that time, the body was cyanotic, extremities were cold, and the respiratory rhythm was irregular. After forty minutes, assisted oxygen breathing returned to normal···Three days later, spontaneous breathing became stable and normal.Laboratory and examination results: There is a small amount of bleeding in the cranial cavity or cerebral edema.
Previous treatment and outcomes: Conventional treatment. Currently, breathing, pulse, and skin color are all normal.
What kind of help is desired: What is the probability of the child developing cerebral palsy?
Doctor's answer:
The current condition of the child cannot yet confirm the likelihood of suffering from other diseases. It is necessary to observe carefully. Because of the brain edema, it cannot be taken lightly, and hospitalization for close observation is required. Routine diuretic and nutritional brain nerve treatment should be administered. If breathing difficulties or choking reappear, it cannot be prevented that epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and other conditions may occur. Therefore, early and active treatment is key.
