Question
Doctor, my son had brain hemorrhage right after birth, and his coagulation function is particularly poor, at 140 seconds. Moreover, I had a vacuum-assisted delivery. Most of our blood tests were normal, but the coagulation tests were slightly elevated.
Answer
In this situation, you should pay attention to pre-natal checks, adequate rest, and positive nutrition. There should be a normal reference value for APTT (69.9 seconds), which is on the longer side! It is advisable to follow the advice of a professional doctor for treatment. If there is poor coagulation function, it is best to go to the hospital for routine blood tests, and if there are any abnormalities, further checks should be conducted to find the cause.
