Question
My sister-in-law gave birth to a child in the hospital, and since the baby was premature, they were only about 7 months old. The baby is having difficulty breathing on their own, and I would like to know about the treatment methods for preemie oxygen therapy.
Answer
Hello. Difficulty breathing in a premature baby over 7 months old may be due to other diseases rather than hypoxia. It is therefore recommended to go to a local public 3A hospital or specialized hospital’s pediatric department for an examination and treatment as soon as possible. Based on the examination results, the doctor will determine whether oxygen therapy is needed, and if so, it may be necessary to stay in the hospital for treatment.
