summary

Sister gave birth to a baby, in the first few months when there was no abnormality, but in six months found something wrong, went to the hospital for related examination, the doctor diagnosed the baby with cerebral palsy. Now let me talk about the main causes of cerebral palsy.

What are the main causes of cerebral palsy

First, case analysis shows that premature birth is the definite cause of cerebral palsy. Long delivery time, umbilical cord around the neck, placental abruption, placenta previa, amniotic fluid blockage and meconium inhalation caused by fetal cerebral hypoxia, dystocia or prolonged labor, forceps injury and intracranial hemorrhage are common perinatal causes. Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia caused by maternal fetal blood group incompatibility or other reasons, such as unconjugated bilirubin > 340 μ mol / L, may develop into bilirubin encephalopathy and cause cerebral palsy.

Second: including all kinds of infection, trauma, poisoning, intracranial hemorrhage and severe asphyxia. The high risk factors of cerebral palsy include maternal prenatal epilepsy, hyperthyroidism and toxemia, bleeding events within 3 months of late pregnancy, weakness of uterine contraction, placental abruption, placenta previa and breech delivery, premature birth and low birth weight. In China, cerebral palsy mostly occurs in premature, low birth weight, intrapartum hypoxia asphyxia and postpartum jaundice.

Third: the cause before birth. It includes fetal brain malformation, congenital hydrocephalus, severe infection (especially virus infection) in early pregnancy, severe nutritional deficiency, trauma, poisoning (such as toxemia of pregnancy) and radiation exposure.

matters needing attention

Each cerebral palsy patients induced by the reason is not the same, so need to go to the relevant hospital for professional examination, take relevant effective treatment methods for treatment. Some patients are caused by improper production during production, and some patients are caused by external reasons.
