Patient's question:
My best friend just had a baby and was diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia. They said she was in the midst of rescue efforts at the time, and the situation looked very serious. Her family is very worried. I want to know what to pay attention to in this situation. What are the preventive measures for neonatal asphyxia?Doctor's answer:
Infant Asphyxia Information (Asphyxiated Newborns), one minute after infant asphyxia, only heartbeat stops breathing or no normal respiratory hypoxia state is established. As one of the main causes of neonatal death, it is the most common emergency situation after neonatal death. Active rescue and appropriate treatment must be carried out to reduce neonatal mortality and prevent long-term sequelae. Infant information review should be jointly conducted by obstetric students and pediatric students. To make the review work fast and effective, it is necessary to understand the medical records in advance and make full preparations for technical operations and mechanical equipment. Apgar score is not the standard for determining whether to quote. Respiration, heart rate, and skin color should be immediately assessed to determine referral measures.
