Question
When is the latest to detect intracranial hemorrhage in newborns?
Answer
Intracranial hemorrhage in newborns, also known as hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease or hemorrhagic stroke, occurs when blood vessels in the brain rupture, causing blood to leak into the cranial cavity. It is related to factors such as birth injuries and hypoxia. Approximately 40% to 50% of premature infants are born at 34 weeks of gestation and weigh 1500 grams at birth. The prognosis should be judged based on the location and amount of bleeding. It is recommended to upload the test results for analysis and evaluation. A follow-up examination should be conducted monthly.
