Question
What to do if a baby’s brainstem evoked potential report shows mild abnormalities in both ears?
Answer
Firstly, it is necessary to determine the cause of the hydrocephalus. Mild hydrocephalus can be treated conservatively and observed closely. Conservative treatment includes administering gangliosides and undergoing hyperbaric oxygen therapy. If the hydrocephalus is mild, these treatment methods usually do not cause pain to the child, and parents can accompany their child during treatment. If the condition is more severe, a ventriculoperitoneal shunting surgery may be required to alleviate symptoms.
