Question

Upon hospital examination, it was found that the neonate lacks vitamin K, accompanied by severe anemia and intracranial hemorrhage with a significant amount of bleeding. The neonate is only 1 month and 7 days old. Can the doctor control the bleeding situation and prevent further bleeding?

Answer

Neonatal intracranial hemorrhage is typically treated conservatively, and hematoma aspiration may be performed as necessary to promote hematoma drainage. In the long term, bleeding may lead to hydrocephalus, so it is important to dynamically observe ventricular changes and regularly perform cranial CT or MRI scans to detect early and avoid delayed treatment. Neonatal intracranial hemorrhage is common in neonatology and can be caused by factors such as hypoxia, compression of the birth canal, or vitamin K1 deficiency.
