What symptom is haemolysis of newborn

summary

Hemolysis of newborn refers to that the blood type of the baby and the mother does not match, which causes the antibody in the mother's blood to enter the baby's blood from the placenta, destroys the red blood cells in the baby's blood, and causes hemolytic anemia, which is an important factor affecting the life of the newborn in clinic. It is a serious disease of newborn. Jaundice and other symptoms can be seen in clinic, which is easy to be confused with physiological jaundice. Severe infants will also have anemia, edema, heart failure, leading to death. Now let's take a look at the hemolysis of newborn.

What symptom is haemolysis of newborn

First, the cause of hemolysis of the newborn is the immune disease caused by the different blood types of the mother and the baby. The blood type of the baby is inherited from the father's antigen, which is exactly what the mother does not have. At this time, the antigen enters the mother's body from the placenta, reacts with the immune mechanism in the mother's body, releases the antibody into the baby's body, destroys the red blood cells, and causes anemia, edema and other diseases It's like this.

Second: the symptoms of neonatal hemolysis are: the baby with mild condition is born like a normal baby, and then jaundice, anemia, drowsiness, and the symptoms are more and more serious; the baby with severe condition has anemia and edema due to a large number of destruction of red blood cells, which may lead to stillbirth and premature birth, and the baby will die of heart failure.

Third: for the symptoms of neonatal hemolysis, we can carry out vitamin K, C and glucose injection in the early, middle and late pregnancy, insist on taking vitamin E; regularly check the amniotic fluid to see the baby's condition; when delivering the baby, prepare the blood bag for standby; the baby with blood exchange needle can choose to exchange blood.

matters needing attention

If the mother to be is Rh negative blood, try not to regenerate the baby after giving birth to the first baby, because the antibody in the mother is likely to harm the second baby; avoid unnecessary blood donation.
