Symptoms that may occur in neonatal convulsions include convulsions, respiratory arrest, generalized trembling, and purple coloration. The causes of neonatal convulsions are many, and may be related to electrolyte disorders, intracranial hemorrhage, birth asphyxia, and ischemic-hypoxic encephalopathy.
1. Ischemic-hypoxic encephalopathy: If the newborn is in intrauterine distress during delivery, the lack of oxygen to the brain and other conditions will lead to brain damage, which will lead to the emergence of neonatal convulsions.
2. Electrolyte disorders: if the electrolyte disorders in the newborn’s body, hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia and other various problems, it may lead to abnormal nerve excitability, and thus the symptoms of neonatal convulsions will appear.
3. Intracranial hemorrhage: If the newborn has intracranial hemorrhage, it may compress the local brain tissue, leading to intracranial hypertension, so there may be neonatal convulsions.
There are many causes of neonatal convulsions, if there are obvious symptoms, you need to take the newborn to the doctor in time to improve the electroencephalogram examination, follow the doctor’s instructions for targeted treatment.
