Question

What are the symptoms of neonatal brain trauma?

Answer

Brain trauma is a temporary dysfunction of the brain that occurs immediately after a blow to the head. Although the pathological changes may not be obvious, clinical symptoms can include temporary unconsciousness, retrograde amnesia, headache, nausea, and vomiting. Neurological examinations usually do not reveal positive signs. Based on the current understanding, mild shaking and jostling are unlikely to cause neonatal brain trauma.Brain trauma is the mildest form of brain injury, and most cases can fully recover with appropriate treatment.
