Intra cranial pressure usually happens because of excess of cerebrospinal fluid in a skull cavity. The Increased Intra Cranial Pressure (IICP) at the child is not an independent disease, but set of the signs which are a consequence of the main disease. It is rather difficult to reveal PVD in the child.
Instruction
1. Analyze an external condition and behavior of the child on existence of the following symptoms: concern, nervousness, the accelerated growth of the head, vybukhany a big fontanel, formation of a venous grid on the head, a divergence of cranial seams, refusal of drink, a symptom "setting the sun" ("are stared" and taken away down), squint, vomiting, frequent vomiting at babies. At children of more advanced age: fast approach of fatigue, sharp change of mood, delay of intellectual development, constant headaches, decrease in sight, vomiting, spasms.
2. See doctors for carrying out inspection of the child. For production of more exact diagnosis the experts will carry out to the baby, besides external inspection, ultrasonic inspection through a fontanel (neurosonogramm). At visit of an office of the doctor lay a diaper on a couch, put on it the child and hold it. Before carrying out inspection the doctor will smear the device sensor with special gel, then will begin to drive this sensor on a head (fontanel) of the child. The sensor will transfer information on existence or lack of signs of PVD to the computer monitor.
3. After completion of the procedure of inspection rub off the child's head a napkin. Except a neurosonogramma the application of other professional methods of inspection of the child is possible: survey of an eye bottom, magnetic resonance imaging, computer tomography.
