Question
Regarding premature babies, many cases indicate that premature babies may be affected by multiple organs. So, what exactly are the brain changes in premature babies?
Answer
Brain changes in premature babies typically refer to the brain hemorrhage that may occur in infants at one to two months of age. The most common cause of this condition is vitamin K deficiency. If an infant has insufficient vitamin K in their body, they may experience bleeding spots throughout the body, especially more common intracranial hemorrhages. If an infant exhibits symptoms of illness, they may have bulging fontanels, crying and fussiness, upward rolling eyes, and frequent vomiting.
