Question
My son was born with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, and he is now two months old. When I quickly bring my finger close to his eyes, he doesn’t blink. Everything else seems normal. What should I do? His eyes are always moving around and he will even roll his eyes back.
Answer
Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy is a neurological disorder caused by oxygen deprivation during pregnancy or the birthing process. The main treatment methods include neurotrophic drugs, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and post-treatment physical training. Generally, 4-6 treatment courses are required. Severe cases of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy often result in varying degrees of sequelae. Different hospitals may have varying approaches to the use of neurotrophic drugs.
