Patient's question:
The child has been born for almost three days. The doctor said the child is experiencing oxygen deprivation. What are the causes of oxygen deprivation in newborns?Doctor's answer:
The most likely period for newborn hypoxia to occur is around the time of birth. Hypoxia caused by reduced amniotic fluid during delivery can lead to hypoxic brain injury and reduced white matter volume in the brain, which may easily result in congenital cerebral palsy and brain diseases in children. It is recommended that you take your child to the neonatal department of the hospital regularly and consider brain CT and EEG examinations, as well as observing whether the child has epilepsy or other related conditions.
