Patient's question:
The wife gave birth to the baby in about an hour. Later, the wife didn't have the strength anymore. The baby was squeezed out. Due to low amniotic fluid, the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby's neck twice. The baby didn't cry when it came out. Will this affect the brain?Doctor's answer:
Hello. As you described. When the baby is born. There may be hypoxia. If the hypoxia is severe. Then ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy may occur. After the child is born, you need to observe the child's condition. If the child does not breastfeed, cries, or always sleeps, then it is abnormal. You need to take the child for a CT scan. If the child's condition is normal, then there is no need to worry too much. You can just pay more attention to the child's development in daily life.
