Neonatal coma - what does this mean
Neonatal coma is a medical emergency that can occur in newborn babies, typically within the first 24 hours of life. it is caused by a variety of factors, including metabolic abnormalities, infection, trauma, or congenital anomalies. it is characterized by a decreased level of consciousness, lack of response to stimuli, and abnormal breathing patterns. treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include supportive care, medication, and in some cases, surgery.
What happens during the disease - neonatal coma
Neonatal coma is a condition in which an infant is unresponsive and unable to be aroused from sleep. it is caused by a variety of factors, including hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, metabolic disorders, infections, trauma, and drug intoxication. in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, a lack of oxygen and/or blood flow to the brain causes brain cells to die, resulting in neurological dysfunction and coma. metabolic disorders, such as hypoglycemia, can cause coma if left untreated. infections, such as meningitis, can cause inflammation of the brain and lead to coma. trauma, such as a head injury, can cause swelling in the brain and lead to coma. drug intoxication can cause coma if the drug causes an overdose or interacts with other medications.
