STATE OF NEUROLOGICAL SYMPTOMS IN NEWBORNS WITH HEMORRHAGIC DISEASE
Abstract
The aim of the study was to study the significance of risk factors for the formation of hemorrhagic disease of the newborn and the course of the disease to improve the organization of disease prevention. Case histories and results of clinical and anamnestic examinations were studied in 38 newborns with hemorrhagic disease, hospitalized in the neonatology department during the last three years. Diagnosis of the disease was carried out on the basis of a detailed study of the anamnesis and clinical, laboratory and instrumental parameters (platelet count, coagulogram, ultrasound and neurosonography). It was revealed that vitamin K deficiency leads to the development of hemorrhagic disease of the newborn due to the influence of adverse factors from the mother (preeclampsia, medication during pregnancy, operative delivery), and the child (prematurity), which requires enhanced dispensary monitoring of a pregnant woman, early identification of risk factors to a newborn.
