The baby fell to the ground and hit his forehead

Many parents are in a rush when they first start taking care of their babies, and babies are very active, which may cause the baby to fall to the ground and hit the forehead. At this time, they will be very scared, fearing that their baby will have sequelae in the future. In fact, don’t worry too much. In this case, you can apply ice first to relieve the baby’s pain, and pay more attention to letting them rest.

(I) Rational selection of diuretics

The selection of diuretics should start with a small dose and gradually increase the dose according to the treatment response to avoid diuretic therapy-induced hypovolemia and electrolyte imbalance.

(II) General treatment

1. Rest: For most patients with edema caused by organ dysfunction, proper bed rest can improve the blood supply to these organs, reduce their burden, prevent symptoms from worsening, and facilitate recovery.

2. Diet: Since patients with systemic edema have varying degrees of water and sodium retention, they should be given a low-salt diet to reduce the sodium and water content in the body.

3. Etiological treatment

In patients whose etiology is clear and can be removed, active etiological treatment can achieve good results.

(IV) Observation of the course of disease

After the cause is identified and treatment is implemented, in addition to closely observing changes in other symptoms and signs of the primary disease during treatment, the following two points should be noted when observing edema.

1. Edema disappearance: After active treatment, edema should gradually disappear. At this time, it is necessary to observe whether the area of ​​edema is reduced and the degree is alleviated, and measure body weight regularly. For patients with ascites, abdominal circumference should be measured daily. If the edema does not subside significantly, the following reasons should be considered: ① The patient did not take the medication as ordered; ② The medication was improperly selected or the dosage was insufficient; ③ The cause of the disease was not treated thoroughly; ④ The diagnosis was incorrect. Then further processing is carried out based on the results of the comprehensive analysis.

2. Prevent the occurrence of complications: One of the main measures for the treatment of edema is diuresis, so during the treatment process, attention should be paid to: ① Prevent a decrease in effective blood volume: The corresponding measures are to measure blood pressure regularly and record 24-hour intake and output. ②Prevent water and electrolyte disorders: The corresponding measures are to pay attention to the combined use of potassium-excreting and potassium-sparing diuretics when selecting diuretics, or appropriately supplement potassium preparations and regularly check blood electrolytes.
