Children recovering from viral encephalitis hyperbaric oxygen it needs to be done
According to my clinical experience, children with viral encephalitis have a certain efficiency, but not the only primary treatment is adjuvant therapy. Can do for some time, but it depends on the child's age, is too small not do it.
Violation of the virus caused inflammation of the brain substance called viral encephalitis, is clinically more dangerous diseases. The main change is that both sides of the hemisphere temporal lobe, limbic lobe, frontal lobe involvement, with white matter hyperemia, punctate hemorrhage, edema and necrosis, brain perivascular cuff-like changes occur mainly caused by intracranial pressure and cerebral blood flow stasis increased blood and oxygen supply to the lesion that barriers to the formation of brain edema, if not treated can form a hernia, leading to central respiratory and circulatory failure and death. Inflammation of brain tissue and because of varying degrees of damage to brain cells, necrosis, cell membrane damage, leading to cerebral ischemia and hypoxia of brain edema and microcirculation and a series of pathological changes. Also, because the arachnoid inflammation, causing the tissue inflammatory reaction in the pia mater and arachnoid adhesions between, or even plug the subarachnoid space, resulting in cerebrospinal fluid circulation disorder, caused by hydrocephalus, caused by ventricular dilatation, brain atrophy, resulting in brain dysfunction. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can eliminate brain edema, and promote axonal regeneration, accelerating the establishment of collateral circulation, thereby cutting off the vicious cycle of pathological.
Unit had 52 cases of encephalitis are treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and comprehensive treatment, the results show the effective rate of 96.1%, 3.9% invalid, the mortality rate of 0. I had treated several cases of encephalitis patients, including two cases of encephalitis-induced coma for up to two months. One case of middle-aged female health workers, combined herniation due to encephalitis caused by respiratory failure, despite cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but the coma lasted two months, the multi-treatment lackluster, but under the intended use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy a try, Results After three courses of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and other comprehensive treatment, the gradual recovery of consciousness, the five began to recover language function after treatment, his family said, "HBO God." Another case series of young students, after three courses of hyperbaric oxygen treatment and recovery fully awake, still go to college next year. Therefore, application of hyperbaric oxygen therapy combined with conventional therapy by means of a comprehensive treatment of viral encephalitis, its efficacy is satisfactory, and relatively simple conventional drug treatment is superior.
In summary, hyperbaric oxygen treatment of viral encephalitis certainly result in a high cure rate, low mortality rates, fewer complications, and speed up coma patients wake up and promote the recovery of brain function, is an ideal and effective treatment, particularly children, more than adults because the brain reconstruction, it is better.
This is a look at the child's specific situation, consult a doctor in the hospital!
