Wen | Yuan's mother's parenting diary original, welcome to forward and share personally
Hyperthermic convulsions are an acute infection of the respiratory tract in infants and young children, especially in infants and young children aged 6 months to 4 years, who have a greater chance of developing hyperthermic convulsions, usually sudden convulsions and loss of consciousness.
In the face of such an emergency, every pair of parents needs to have emergency preparations and master certain coping methods to minimize the harm to their children.
At this level of high fever and convulsions, the child is very sad
An 11-month-old baby in Henan suddenly had a high fever and convulsions late at night, and no response was given to how the mother called, and the mother held the child in panic and was helpless.
Because of fear and worry, the mother held the child and could not help but cry, and the crying resounded throughout the corridor in the night.
The mother's cry woke up a grandfather of the neighbor, opened the door to inquire about the situation and reminded the mother that she could pinch the child, and with the help of the uncle, the child cried out, and the mother's hanging heart could finally be temporarily put down.
People who are moms and dads can't see their children suffer, but the premise of not wanting their children to suffer is that they are well cared for and have the ability to cope with unexpected situations.
I know that the last bao dad shared his experience, because of the negligence of using the wrong drug, his daughter had a second convulsion, and the thought at that time was to send it to the hospital.
Children who have had convulsions have another fever is dangerous, and once the temperature reaches 38 degrees, they should use medicine to reduce the fever. Do not consider the possible side effects of the drug, as convulsions can be more severe if not treated well.
Parents can't help but know about high fever convulsions!
Convulsive fever is not a trivial matter for children, so serious that it may increase the risk of epilepsy, parents should pay more attention to this matter, first understand that there are two types of high fever convulsions: simple and complex.
How to distinguish between two different types of convulsions?
Simple febrile seizures usually occur within the age of 3 years, and children over 6 years of age will no longer have simple seizures.
If your baby's body temperature rises above 39° during convulsions, both eyes turn up, there are obvious twitches at the corners of the mouth or face, and there is a loss of consciousness, it can basically be judged to be simple convulsions.
This type of convulsion lasts for a relatively short time, even a few seconds will end and only 1 convulsion will appear, the longest will not exceed 10 minutes, the baby's state will be very good after the convulsion stops, so simple convulsions are not easy to attract the attention of parents.
Complex seizures are more harmful to children, may have frequent seizures for a short period of time, and each convulsion lasts more than 10 minutes, and the baby will have local convulsions.
Complex seizures may be affected by other disorders, and body temperature may not exceed 38° may occur, and simple family management is difficult to cope with complex seizures.
The probability of convulsions is about 6%, most of which are in early childhood.
Because the child's immune system has not yet been fully established, the younger the physique, the weaker the constitution, more likely to be infected with viruses, bacteria, and many hereditary diseases may also be manifested as convulsions, so the smaller the baby, the more attention should be paid to, parents do not take care of it.
How to urgently deal with your baby's febrile seizures?
Babies have convulsions Parents first can not panic, put the baby flat, if the clothing is too thick to uncover, so that the baby has enough breathing space.
Find someone with more strength to hold your baby's chin to prevent twitching and biting your tongue, and don't feed your baby any medicine or food to your mouth when you twitch.
The direct cause of high fever convulsions is still inseparable from "heat", so it is necessary to help the baby cool down.
If you dare not easily use drugs to cool down, you can use a towel soaked in warm water to help your baby wipe his armpits, thigh roots, and elbow sockets to cool down.
Simple seizures last for a few minutes (within 10 minutes) and stop, so you don't have to be too nervous.
If repeated convulsions and duration are long, it is easy to cause hypoxia, and even threaten life and health, so the baby must go to the hospital for relevant examinations to avoid affecting brain development.
In addition to the correct response, parents should still focus on prevention, increase the baby's immunity, increase the baby's activity to enhance physical fitness, especially in the flu season to strengthen protection.
