Patient's question:
I just had my little baby three days ago, but the doctor has been doing a lot of tests on him every day these past few days, saying that the child is not quite right. Because his whole face is red, and he can't breathe through his nose. He has symptoms of hypoxia. What are the consequences of hypoxia in newborns?Doctor's answer:
Hello parents, severe hypoxia in newborns can lead to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, damaging brain cells and leaving neurological sequelae. Severe cases may result in cerebral palsy. Timely treatment is necessary. It is also important to observe whether the infant has convulsions or symptoms of impaired consciousness. Feeding should be strengthened to prevent malnutrition from affecting the infant's growth and development. Routine child health care
