Generally speaking, those whose birth weight is less than 1500g, that is, less than 3 pounds, are called extremely low weight babies. The lower the birth weight and the younger the gestational age, the higher the morbidity and mortality of the baby. Recently, Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital successfully treated premature triplets with very low birth weight. On June 10, Dabao and Xiaobao recovered and were discharged from the hospital. On June 24, Erbao also completed the pre-discharge examination and was discharged from the hospital on the 25th.
Looking back on the scene when the baby was born, Ms. Li, the mother of triplets, was not as relaxed as she is now. On April 4, Ms. Li suffered premature rupture of membranes and gave birth to three boys. She was only 29 weeks and 4 days pregnant at that time. The triplets were extremely premature babies. The eldest baby weighed 2 kilograms at birth, the second baby weighed 2 kilograms and 4 taels, and the little one weighed 2 and a half kilograms. All three babies were extremely low birth weight.
Tang Wenyan, Director of the Neonatology Department of Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital: These triplets were naturally conceived. . All three babies had obvious breathing difficulties and had respiratory distress syndrome. . During the treatment process, the conditions of Dabao and Sanbao were relatively smooth. They used the non-invasive ventilator for about 10 days and more than 50 days of treatment, and the effect was relatively good.
On June 10, Dabao and Xiaobao recovered and were discharged from the hospital. Because Erbao was the most seriously ill, the doctor formulated a detailed treatment plan for him. The baby's health improved day by day, and the family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Wenyan, Director of the Neonatology Department of Jiangxi Maternity and Child Health Hospital: The second child's condition was relatively serious. He was put on an invasive ventilator and had repeated pulmonary bleeding within a month. This is the case for ultra-premature babies because their entire system is immature, especially in this baby's lungs. There are many difficulties to overcome during the treatment process, such as respiratory, infection, feeding, etc. At present, naturally conceived triplets, especially those with extremely low birth weight, are still relatively rare, and it is rare to see such successful treatment.
Mother of triplets Ms. Li: I am very happy. They are all discharged from the hospital and can be reunited.
Mother of "triplets": "I didn't expect the hospital to take the initiative to help me"
It is understood that Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital, as a national children's regional medical center construction project hospital, the neonatology department treats more than 10,000 children every year, and the rescue success rate is in More than 99%, the cure and improvement rate of ultra-preterm infants is 73.6%. When it was learned that Ms. Li's family's financial situation was not good, the hospital took the initiative to provide help to Ms. Li.
Tang Wenyan, Director of the Neonatology Department of Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital: We have contacted two relief funds. We have already raised a relief fund of 15,000 yuan for the family members, and there will be another 15,000 yuan relief fund ready to be received in the future. We also hope to follow up. Provide some help to the family members, provide some warmth to the family members in terms of humanistic care, and do our best to provide assistance to the poor family members.
Mother of triplets Ms. Li: My husband’s job is irregular and I am unemployed at home with four children. My eldest daughter is only one year and three months old. We have spent 340,000 yuan in the hospital. I never thought that the hospital would take the initiative to help me contact these. It is quite helpful to relieve the pressure on my family.
