Absence or low individual and public risk
Transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism - what does this mean
Transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism occur due to the immaturity of the newborn's renal system, which is unable to handle the high concentrations of calcium and magnesium in the mother's blood. this leads to an imbalance of these minerals in the newborn's body, resulting in a variety of symptoms including seizures, tremors, muscle weakness, and difficulty breathing.
What happens during the disease - transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism
Transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism are caused by a disruption in the normal balance of these minerals in the body. this disruption can be due to a variety of factors, such as maternal malnutrition, prematurity, or the use of certain medications during pregnancy. these factors can lead to an imbalance in the absorption, metabolism, and excretion of calcium and magnesium, resulting in a variety of symptoms, including seizures, cardiac arrhythmias, hypotonia, and respiratory distress.

How does a doctor diagnose
- Complete blood count
- Electrolyte panel
- Urine analysis
- Calcium and magnesium level measurement
- X-ray of the chest and abdomen
- Bone densitometry
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain
- CT scan of the chest and abdomen
- Echocardiogram
- Electroencephalogram (EEG)
- Cardiac catheterization
- Genetic testing
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main Goal: Treating the Transitory Neonatal Disorders of Calcium and Magnesium Metabolism
- Administering calcium and magnesium supplements
- Monitoring the baby's calcium and magnesium levels
- Administering vitamin D supplements
- Limiting the intake of phosphorus-rich foods
- Increasing the intake of calcium-rich foods
- Administering diuretics to reduce the amount of calcium and magnesium excreted in the urine
- Administering antacids to reduce the amount of calcium and magnesium lost in the feces
- Providing adequate hydration to prevent dehydration
- Administering antibiotics if infection is present
10 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism - Prevention
Transitory neonatal disorders of calcium and magnesium metabolism can be prevented by ensuring adequate levels of these minerals in the mother's diet throughout pregnancy and providing adequate supplementation of calcium and magnesium during labor and delivery, as well as monitoring serum levels of these minerals in newborns.
