How to deal with abnormal blood sugar in test tube babies?
Test tube baby is a method of insemination in the laboratory through in vitro fertilization technology, and abnormal blood sugar refers to the concentration of sugar in the blood is higher or lower than the normal range. The abnormal blood sugar of test tube babies may be caused by genetic factors, maternal diabetes, fetal metabolic abnormalities and other reasons. When dealing with abnormal blood sugar in test tube infants, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the reasons behind and take appropriate treatment measures.
1. Background information analysis
When dealing with abnormal blood glucose in test tube infants, background information analysis is required first. The cause of abnormal blood glucose can be preliminarily determined by understanding the mother's medical history, family history and prenatal fetal status. For example, if the mother has a history of diabetes, the possibility of abnormal blood sugar in IVF will increase. At the same time, it is also necessary to check the blood sugar level of the baby after birth to determine whether there is abnormal blood sugar.
Once abnormal blood glucose is found, it is necessary to immediately contact the professional team of relevant hospitals, such as the IVF Center of Peking University First Hospital. Experts familiar with infant medicine and endocrinology can provide professional guidance and treatment suggestions.
2. Treatment scheme selection
According to the cause and severity of abnormal blood glucose, the doctor will formulate a corresponding treatment plan. If it is hypoglycemia, the common treatment methods include feeding the baby in time, improving the diet structure, and controlling drug use. For hyperglycemia, insulin therapy may be required to stabilize blood sugar levels.
In addition, doctors may also recommend further examination of IVF to determine whether there are other potential diseases or abnormalities. For example, abnormal insulin secretion may be related to congenital insulin hypersecretion syndrome (CHI), which needs to be determined through relevant tests.
The choice of treatment plan needs to take into account the baby's physical condition, family history and the opinions of medical experts.
3. Home care measures
Home care is an important part of handling abnormal blood sugar in test tube infants. After receiving the treatment plan from the doctor, parents need to fully understand the goals and methods of treatment, and carry out reasonable nursing measures according to the doctor's guidance.
For infants with hypoglycemia, parents need to pay attention to giving adequate feeding to ensure that the baby's diet is normal and fed on time. At the same time, parents need to consciously observe the situation of the baby, such as the amount of food, the frequency of food, the baby's response to feeding, so as to adjust the nursing plan in time.
For infants with hyperglycemia, parents need to learn to use insulin injectors and inject insulin correctly according to the doctor's advice. At the same time, it should also pay attention to whether the baby has symptoms of hypoglycemia, such as sweating, trembling, restlessness, etc., and take corresponding nursing measures in time.
4. Prevention and recheck
It is very important to prevent and recheck the abnormal blood glucose of test tube infants after handling it. Regularly review the blood sugar level of infants to understand the treatment effect and disease progress. At the same time, parents need to follow the doctor's advice and pay attention to the measures to prevent the recurrence of abnormal blood sugar.
The measures to prevent abnormal blood sugar include reasonable diet arrangement, regular and quantitative feeding, and close attention to the development of infants. If the test tube baby has abnormal blood sugar due to maternal diabetes, the key to preventing the recurrence of abnormal blood sugar is to maintain the health of the mother.
summary
The treatment of abnormal blood glucose in test tube infants requires comprehensive consideration of the reasons behind and formulation of appropriate treatment plans. Home care is very important, including adequate feeding, rational use of drugs, and observation of the baby's reaction. It is also critical to prevent the recurrence of abnormal blood glucose. Regular review of blood glucose levels and corresponding preventive measures should be taken.
Through the detailed description of the above aspects, it can help parents and doctors better deal with the problem of abnormal blood sugar in test tube babies, and provide safe and effective treatment.
