Question
A 56-day-old girl was born with a three-degree amniotic fluid contamination and an umbilical cord around the neck, delivered via cesarean section. Currently, the girl is showing normal development, but her parents are concerned about the possibility of brain hypoxia. How should it be treated?
Answer
The hypoxic-ischemic brain disease that the girl may have encountered usually originates from hypoxia during pregnancy or the birthing process. Treatment methods primarily include neurotrophic drug therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, as well as subsequent physical training. Treatment typically requires 4 to 6 sessions, and severe hypoxic-ischemic brain disease may leave varying degrees of sequelae. There are many types of neurotrophic drugs, and medication habits vary from hospital to hospital.
