What causes cerebral palsy
summary
My aunt's child was diagnosed with cerebral palsy a few months after birth. Later, it was found out that it was caused by premature birth. Understanding the cause of the disease can play a preventive role. Let's see what causes cerebral palsy.
What causes cerebral palsy
One of the reasons: the causes of cerebral palsy in children are premature infants. Nowadays, due to the improvement of medical level, many children with gestational age of only 28 weeks and weight of less than 1 kg have been rescued and survived. The probability of children born in this state suffering from cerebral palsy is very high.
The second reason: when the fetus is born, that is, in the process of delivery. Fetal asphyxia and intracranial hemorrhage caused by delivery are important factors in the cause of cerebral palsy in children.
The third reason: neonatal asphyxia is also the cause of cerebral palsy, especially severe asphyxia. Due to hypoxia, it is easy to cause brain edema and intracranial hemorrhage, resulting in brain tissue damage.
matters needing attention
Parents should do a good job in education, guide children's normal behavior, avoid abnormal posture, and strengthen the practice of unfinished work. Cerebral palsy is a very difficult disease to treat. Parents should keep enough patience and insist on treating their children.
