Question

How to treat neonatal hypoxia?

Answer

A color Doppler ultrasound examination of the neonate’s brain revealed a slightly stronger echo in the right side of the corpus callosum, with normal feeding conditions. However, the baby is prone to startling and the chin trembles slightly when crying. This condition belongs to neonatal ischemic brain disease, which may leave sequelae and trigger hydrocephalus. It is recommended to undergo 2 to 3 courses of neurotrophic treatment, and high-pressure oxygen therapy can be combined. Early treatment is more beneficial for the prognosis than waiting for symptoms to appear. Parents should take their child to the hospital immediately, avoid using unknown drugs on their own, follow medical instructions for rational medication, and closely monitor their child’s condition changes, intervening in treatment as early as possible to help the child recover.
