What treatments are available for Neonatal Disorders?
Treatment depends on the specific disorder and its severity:
- Respiratory Support: Infants with RDS may require supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, or surfactant replacement therapy. - Phototherapy: Used to treat jaundice, phototherapy helps break down excess bilirubin in the baby's blood. - Antibiotics: Essential for treating infections like neonatal sepsis. - Surgical Interventions: Necessary for certain congenital heart defects and other structural abnormalities. - Therapeutic Hypothermia: Used for HIE, cooling the baby's body can help reduce brain damage.
