What are the sequelae of neonatal cerebral hemorrhage?

After a child is born prematurely, he or she is likely to encounter problems such as cerebral hemorrhage. Even after being cured, there may be sequelae. So what is the reason why sequelae still occur after being cured? Now please follow me to understand the reasons for this.

Neonatal cerebral hemorrhage is a very common type of brain injury in the neonatal period. It is caused by hypoxia or birth trauma. The incidence rate is relatively high in premature infants and the prognosis is relatively poor.

Generally, a newborn's cerebral hemorrhage will cause varying degrees of brain damage and brain dysfunction. Although it has been treated, there are still varying degrees of sequelae. This is related to the following factors:

1. Amount of bleeding. The severity of the sequelae of neonatal cerebral hemorrhage is related to the amount of bleeding, and the amount of bleeding directly affects the severity of the clinical symptoms. Newborns with intrahemispheric bleeding of more than 25 ml usually have sequelae. It is not difficult to understand that the more bleeding there is, the more severe the sequelae will be.

2. The bleeding site. Bleeding in different parts of the brain causes different degrees of brain function damage. For example, bleeding in the basal ganglia often leaves patients with severe limb dysfunction, while bleeding in the brain stem often causes death even if the lesion is small. Bleeding in the cerebellum can cause symptoms such as limb numbness and unstable walking in the future.

The above is an introduction to the sequelae of neonatal cerebral hemorrhage. I hope that the introduction can better help children escape from danger and get rid of the disease as soon as possible. I hope that all parents can read this article carefully, which will also help you help your children recover as soon as possible.
