Neonatal Encephalopathy

Neonatal encephalopathy is a serious condition affecting newborns, where the brain does not function properly due to lack of oxygen or injury around the time of birth. This can lead to issues like seizures, difficulties in feeding, and developmental delays. It can arise from factors such as complicated labor, infections, or maternal health issues. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial, as they can improve outcomes for affected infants. Care may involve supportive therapies and monitoring to help the baby's brain heal and develop as normally as possible.
