Absence or low individual and public risk
Intraventricular (nontraumatic) haemorrhage, grade 3, and grade 4 of fetus and newborn - what does this mean
Intraventricular haemorrhage (ivh) is a type of bleeding that occurs in the brain of a fetus or newborn, usually caused by a disruption of the normal blood supply to the brain. grade 3 and 4 ivh refers to a more severe form of ivh, where large amounts of blood have been released into the ventricles of the brain, leading to a higher risk of long-term neurological impairment.
What happens during the disease - intraventricular (nontraumatic) haemorrhage, grade 3, and grade 4 of fetus and newborn
Intraventricular (nontraumatic) haemorrhage occurs when blood vessels in the brain rupture and bleed into the ventricles. this can occur due to a variety of causes, including prematurity, infection, congenital malformation, or vascular malformation. grade 3 and 4 of this condition are more severe and can cause damage to the brain tissue, leading to neurological deficits, hydrocephalus, and even death. risk factors for this condition include prematurity, low birth weight, and maternal complications during pregnancy. treatment depends on the severity of the haemorrhage and may include medications, surgery, or supportive care.
Clinical Pattern

How does a doctor diagnose
- Ultrasound scan to assess the size and location of the haemorrhage
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to determine the extent of the haemorrhage
- Cerebral Angiography to detect any vascular abnormalities
- Cranial CT scan to identify any structural changes
- Neurological examination to assess neurological function
- Blood tests to assess haematological and biochemical parameters
- Lumbar puncture to detect any intracranial pressure
- EEG to measure brain activity
- Cardiac ultrasound to assess cardiac function
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of treatment: To reduce the risk of neurological damage or death due to intraventricular haemorrhage in the fetus or newborn.
- Monitoring of vital signs and oxygen saturation
- Initiate and maintain adequate respiratory support
- Administer medications to reduce intracranial pressure
- Administer fluids and nutrition to support metabolic demands
- Perform a neurological assessment
- Monitor for signs of infection
- Perform regular imaging studies to assess for progression of the haemorrhage
- Perform regular laboratory tests to assess for infection and metabolic status
- Perform a detailed physical examination
- Perform regular neurodevelopmental assessments
- Administer medications to reduce the risk of seizures
- Refer to a specialist for further management and treatment
11 Days of Hospitalization Required

Intraventricular (nontraumatic) haemorrhage, grade 3, and grade 4 of fetus and newborn - Prevention
To prevent intraventricular (nontraumatic) haemorrhage, grade 3, and grade 4 of fetus and newborn, pregnant women should be monitored closely for any signs of preterm labor or intrauterine growth restriction. in addition, mothers should receive antenatal steroids and magnesium sulfate to reduce the risk of the disease. furthermore, quality antenatal care should be provided to ensure timely diagnosis and management of any complications during pregnancy.
