Question
What should be noted with intracranial hemorrhage in newborns?
Answer
Closely monitor the baby’s vital signs changes, including consciousness status, ocular symptoms, neck tone, breathing, muscle tone, and pupil changes. Carefully record the time and location of seizures to avoid misdiagnosis. Regularly measure the baby’s head circumference and promptly record any positive signs and contact the doctor. In terms of health education, encourage continuous treatment and follow-up, and teach parents to perform functional training for their children to enhance their confidence in overcoming illness. At the same time, strengthen perinatal health care to reduce the incidence of malformed births, asphyxia, and respiratory distress in pregnant women.
