Patient's question:
He has also been treating this disease and taking medication, but there has been no improvement. I am also very frustrated. Many methods have been tried without success. Please ask: If diagnosed with ischemic and hypoxic encephalopathy by a doctor, how should it be handled?Doctor's answer:
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy caused by respiratory distress in newborns, after active treatment, mild cases are highly unlikely to leave any sequelae, while moderate cases may have a small portion with sequelae. Severe cases mostly leave sequelae. For babies born with this condition, it is recommended to conduct monthly neurological examinations starting from birth until around one year of age to detect early any issues in the child's motor skills, intelligence, and language development. If problems are identified, early treatment should be initiated. If neurological examinations show normal development in all systems, it is highly unlikely that sequelae will remain, except for the treatment of newborn respiratory distress. In addition to treating the respiratory distress, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a cheerful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery.
