Patient's question:
A one-year-old premature baby. Developed crying after 20 days of birth. Face and lips turned black. What kind of help is needed: It has improved now. Unsure if oxygen is given just once. Is it still possible to be deficient?Doctor's answer:
The degree of hypoxia may manifest differently. Additionally, natural reflexes in newborns, such as the embrace reflex and grasp reflex, etc., may also be caused by hypoxia. CT is a radiographic examination that involves a certain amount of radiation. However, if it is only done occasionally, it does not cause significant harm to the baby. Therefore, if the examination is necessary to rule out the possibility, it is recommended to proceed with it. Alternatively, if the baby is currently doing well and you really do not want to undergo the examination, treatment with drugs that nourish brain cells for a few days can also be considered.
