What Is an Anoxic Brain Injury?

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a common brain injury caused by hypoxic or ischemic brain caused by various perinatal factors, mainly manifested in changes in consciousness and muscle tone. It can be divided into mild, moderate and severe according to the change of the condition. Mild to moderate manifestations of excitement or insensitivity, normal or decreased muscle tone. Severe cases may include coma, soft muscle tone, and frequent seizures. It is often accompanied by severe sequelae such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and learning difficulties.

To prevent pregnant women with asphyxiation of the newborn, regular prenatal examinations should be performed, and high-risk pregnancies should be handled in time to avoid preterm and surgical births; improve obstetric techniques; perform fetal heart monitoring for high-risk pregnancies, and detect and treat intrauterine distress early; At the time of delivery, when the fetal head is delivered, immediately squeeze out the mucus in the mouth and nose, squeeze out or suck the mouth, nasopharyngeal secretions again after birth, and do all the preparations for resuscitation of the newborn.
(1) During the delivery process, the fetal heart rate should be closely monitored, the fetal scalp blood pH and blood gas should be measured regularly, and intrauterine distress should be promptly given oxygen and intravenous glucose and other drugs, and the best way to end the delivery as soon as possible.
(2) Newborn asphyxiated, strive to establish within 5 minutes
The short-term adverse prognosis of HIE is death, and the long-term adverse prognosis is mostly the sequelae of cerebral nerve damage. The more severe the hypoxic-ischemia and the longer the duration of encephalopathy symptoms in the surviving cases, the more likely the sequelae are and the more severe the sequelae. Common sequelae are stunting, mental retardation, spastic paralysis, and epilepsy.
