Patient's question:
I have an older sister who gave birth to a child a few months ago and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. However, she also underwent a prenatal screening test during pregnancy. How is it that the child she gave birth to still has cerebral palsy? I think it might have been something wrong during the delivery, so I wanted to ask what are the causes of cerebral palsy in newborns?Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy or the use of certain medications during pregnancy, fetal hypoxia and fetal hypoxia at birth may cause cerebral palsy. The nuchal scan only checks whether the fetus is congenital, not cerebral palsy. Therefore, prenatal care is not aimed at cerebral palsy. This child has cerebral palsy and can only be treated through rehabilitation training, rehabilitation, and training, and can be treated by professional pediatric medical rehabilitation institutions.
