Intraventricular haemorrhage due to birth injury - what does this mean
Intraventricular haemorrhage due to birth injury occurs when a baby suffers a traumatic head injury during labour or delivery, causing bleeding in the brain's ventricles. this can lead to swelling of the brain, seizures, and other neurological complications.
What happens during the disease - intraventricular haemorrhage due to birth injury
Intraventricular haemorrhage due to birth injury is caused by a disruption in the normal blood supply to the brain during the birth process. this can be due to a variety of factors such as prolonged labour, a difficult birth, or a premature baby. the disruption of blood flow can lead to the formation of a blood clot or a tear in the vessel wall, resulting in bleeding inside the ventricles of the brain. this bleeding can cause significant damage to the brain tissue, leading to neurological problems and long-term disability.
