Patient's question:
Before I was pregnant, I didn't get the Down syndrome screening because I thought there was no such history in my family, so I wasn't worried. However, after the child was born, they were diagnosed with Down syndrome. I want to ask the doctor, what should be done for a child with Down syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello, Trisomy 21 syndrome, also known as congenital or Down syndrome, is the most common congenital defect caused by chromosomal abnormalities in children. As the name suggests, this disease is a mental illness with a special phenotype caused by congenital factors. Currently, there is no effective treatment for this disease. It is necessary to educate and train children for a long time to prevent infectious diseases and various infectious diseases, and to use vitamin B6, r-tyrosine, folic acid, etc. as soon as possible to improve function.
