How Can Brain Damage Caused By Heart Stoppage Be Treated?
I had a perfect baby boy that went in for a surgery and it went fine. Then 2 days later his heart stopped and was down for 45 mins. We have found out that he has brain damage but I was wondering if you knew anything that would help him. I am just wanting things that might be able to help him. Please help.

Thank you for asking querry.
See whatever brain damage has occured can not be reversed.
Although its a wait and watch situation, you can continue with feeds and physiotherapy.
Hope you find this helpful.
