The comatose children should be in a supine position, and their heads should be tilted to one side so that their secretions can be discharged at any time; Every two hours to help children turn over 1 time, Mommy can pat the back of children to help smooth discharge of phlegm. 3. For children with paralysis sequelae, the paralyzed limbs should be in a functional position, and the muscles of the limbs should be massaged and stretched as soon as possible. 4. For bedridden children, we should pay attention to avoid bedsore, so Mommy should help children turn over more, and use anti bedsore air cushion; If the bedsore has occurred and the symptoms are mild, it can be roasted with a lamp. The method is to use a 60 watt light bulb, put it 3-4 cm away from the bedsore, bake it for 15 minutes each time, twice a day, to help promote blood circulation. 5. For children with encephalitis in convalescence, we should help them enhance their self-care ability and confidence, and help them continue to take active exercise for better recovery.
