After 10 months in the mother’s belly, the baby will “break the shell”. What’s not perfect is that some newborn babies will have suffocation problems. The doctor will perform an Apgar score on the newborn baby to determine whether the baby is hypoxic or suffocated. If the Apgar score is too low, it means that the baby is suffering from hypoxia. The sad thing is that once the baby is suffocated, it is likely to have sequelae. What are the sequelae of suffocation?
An Apgar score of 8 or above indicates that the baby is quite normal. 4-7 points are mild asphyxia, 0-3 points are severe asphyxia. Babies with low levels of hypoxia can recover in a short period of time. Babies with severe asphyxia and hypoxia need emergency resuscitation, otherwise, it will be difficult to survive. If the baby cannot establish effective breathing, the longer the brain is deprived of oxygen, the more serious the damage of brain cells will be. Even if the rescue is successful, the baby may have sequelae such as mental retardation, hare lips or dyskinesia. After some babies grow up, they react slowly, or babies of four or five months old can’t stand their heads up. These can all be suffocation sequelae.
