The symptoms of ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy are complex, and can show consciousness disorders, mental disorders, seizures, etc. Ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy can cause changes in consciousness, muscle tension, respiratory rhythm, etc., and even show convulsions. Ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy is a brain lesion caused by ischemia and hypoxia of brain tissue caused by various reasons. The most common cause is neonatal ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy, and the most common cause for adults is cardiac arrest, poisoning, etc. Treatment should first consider removing the cause and correcting the ischemic and hypoxic state. Most of the non-neonatal ischemic and hypoxic encephalopathy has a poor prognosis. Severe cases can develop into vegetative state, the lowest state of consciousness, or even death. Even after treatment, the patient's consciousness is clear, it may still be accompanied by obvious sequelae of neurological deficit. Therefore, sequelae include epilepsy, cognitive impairment, consciousness disorder, etc. In terms of rehabilitation, it is very important to carry out rehabilitation exercises for intellectual and physical functions.
