What causes cerebral palsy in children? What should I do?

Premature babies are also a cause of cerebral palsy, and due to the improvement of medical standards, many children with a gestational age of only 28 weeks and a weight of less than 1 kg have been rescued. However, due to the small gestational age, the brain is very immature, so it is easy to develop brain damage. If central movement disorders occur after the injury, cerebral palsy may occur.

Neonatal asphyxia is also a cause of cerebral palsy, especially severe asphyxia. Due to the lack of oxygen, it is easy to cause cerebral edema and intracranial hemorrhage, resulting in brain tissue damage. Modern research has found that children with severe asphyxia have brain damage before birth, and the presence of brain damage prevents the child from being delivered smoothly.

Therefore, the new view is that fetal brain injury leads to neonatal asphyxia, which in turn aggravates neonatal brain injury.

Jaundice is a process that most children may experience after birth, but if it is not timely, bilirubin enters the central nervous system, especially in the basal ganglia, subthalamic nucleus, caudate nucleus and other parts of the brain, it may lead to kernicterus, and intellectual disability or cerebral palsy, which is one of the causes of cerebral palsy.

Intrapartum brain damage. Various causes of perinatal factors such as intrauterine hypoxia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy caused by intrapartum asphyxia, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.

Congenital developmental disorders. Many cases of cerebral palsy are related to intrinsic defects in the prenatal fetus. Various internal and external environmental factors, such as severe nutritional deficiencies in early maternal and infant years, including trace element deficiencies, infection, injury, radiation, etc., are important factors leading to cerebral palsy.

Postnatal factors. Hyperbilirubinemia, convulsions, severe asphyxia in the neonatal period, etc. In the process of pregnancy, "tonic" is an indispensable nutritional saving step, which not only ensures the health of the mother's physical function, but also maintains the nutritional needs of the fetus.

However, in the process of supplementing food, it is necessary to be comprehensive, especially to pay attention to the regular intake of trace elements, because trace elements, especially essential trace elements, play an important role in ensuring embryonic development, maintaining human growth and normal metabolism. Since the occurrence and development of cerebral palsy are the result of abnormal brain tissue development, secondary damage and metabolic abnormalities, some essential trace elements, such as zinc, iron, selenium, copper, and manganese, may play a specific role in the occurrence and development of cerebral palsy.

1. Infection during pregnancy: such as epidemic viruses such as rubella, herpes zoster and other diseases.

2. Delayed labor: such as cephalopelvic disproportionality, pelvic stenosis, abnormal fetal position, advanced age of primary labor, macrosomia uterine contraction, etc., which prolongs the labor process, delays labor occurs, causes fetal intrauterine distress, and fails to deal with it in time.

3. Neonatal convulsions: This is the most important risk factor for cerebral palsy, and the birth weight is less than 2500g and requires special care, and the neonatal is in an inhibited state is an important factor for cerebral palsy.

4. Respiratory disorders in the neonatal period: neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, aspiration pneumonia, atelectasis, hyaline membrane disease, and pulmonary edema can affect the blood and oxygen supply to brain tissue, resulting in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

5. Neonatal hyperthermia: If a newborn is found to have a fever, it must be found in time, and physical and pharmaceutical means must be used to cool down in time.

1.Genetic factors: The fertilized egg contains the DNA genetic material of both parents, and their constituent genes are arranged in a straight line on the chromosomes, and congenital malformations can occur when the chromosomes appear numerical or knotted aberrations, gene mutations or congenital metabolic defects, showing individual developmental abnormalities.

Studies in recent years have suggested that genetic factors play an increasing role in the causes of cerebral palsy. Some children have a family history of cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, or congenital malformations in the maternal and paternal lines of their peers or predecessors. 2.

Factors during pregnancy: maternal infection: the mother suffers rubella, cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis, syphilis, herpes simplex virus, Epstein-Barr virus and other infections during the embryonic period through the placenta and the fetus produces congenital infection and malformations.

The ** cause cerebral palsy is related to environmental factors during pregnancy: when the embryo develops in the mother's uterus, it is very susceptible to the influence of external environmental factors such as physical, chemical or biological factors, especially for embryos within 8 weeks, which causes embryo differentiation and development disorders and congenital malformations. Physical factors are also the most common causes of cerebral palsy, and the most common physical teratogenic factors are radiation, mechanical factors, high temperature, severe cold, microwave, hypoxia, etc.

3.Intrapartum factors: delayed labor:

For example, cephalopelvic disproportionality, pelvic stenosis, fetal misposition, advanced age and primiparity, macrosomia, uterine contraction weakness, etc., prolongs the labor process, delays labor occurs, and causes fetal intrauterine distress, and fails to deal with it; Improper surgical operation: such as high forceps, fetal head suction, breech postpartum difficulty in prominence; Umbilical cord blood flow obstruction: such as umbilical cord prolapse, compression, knotting or neck wrapping, etc.; Placental abnormalities:

Such as placental abruption, placenta previa, placental infarction or placental dysfunction; Neonatal asphyxia, macrosomia, etc.

The main manifestations of cerebral palsy are movement disorders and postural abnormalities. Intellectual disability, epilepsy, perceptual impairment, communication disorder, behavioral abnormalities, and other abnormalities are common. Cerebral palsy is a syndrome caused by non-progressive brain damage and developmental defects from conception to infancy.

The main causes of cerebral palsy in children are:

1. Hypoxic asphyxia: including fetal hypoxic asphyxia in the mother's womb, neonatal hypoxic asphyxia during childbirth, respiratory distress syndrome, circulatory failure, polycythemia, these are all factors that can lead to the cause of cerebral palsy in children.

2. Premature birth and fetal dysplasia: fetal intrauterine infection, slow intrauterine growth, congenital malformations. Newborns weighing less than 2,500 grams are much more likely to have cerebral palsy (about 40% of children with cerebral palsy weigh less than 2,500 grams).

3. Causes of pregnant women: The causes of cerebral palsy in children also include abdominal trauma in pregnant women, threatened abortion, prenatal hemorrhage, preeclampsia and placental causes (placental abruption, placenta previa, placental necrosis or poor placental function), as well as certain chronic diseases of pregnant women.

4. Brain injury: This is also one of the causes of cerebral palsy in children, such as brain injury in babies during childbirth, neonatal head injuries or brain infections, and cerebrovascular accidents can easily cause cerebral palsy in children.
