Patient's question:
Please let me know that after my baby was born, a CT scan at 26 days revealed brain hypoxia-ischemia. How can it be treated, and will it leave behind sequelae? The doctor now recommends I stay in the hospital for 10 days. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
This is the reason for circulatory failure. Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is classified into mild, moderate, and severe degrees. Patients with mild cases have a good prognosis and no sequelae. The mortality rate is very high in critically ill patients. Survivors may leave behind various neurological sequelae, such as cerebral palsy, ataxia, intellectual disability, and epilepsy. They are one of the most common causes of disability in children. It is best to follow the doctor's advice. The above is advice for the issue of "neonatal hypoxia-ischemia," hoping it helps you, and wishing you good health!
