What is the best way to treat hydrocephalus?

The treatment of hydrocephalus is actually more about prevention before delivery, such as strengthening prenatal examinations and diagnosis, enhancing awareness of eugenics, and recommending childbirth at the best age. It is best for women to give birth between the ages of 25 and 29.

1. Strengthen early prenatal diagnosis and early termination of pregnancy

Prevent the birth of a child with hydrocephalus. Early prenatal diagnosis of a child with hydrocephalus is an important way to prevent the birth of a child with hydrocephalus. Since obvious hydrocephalus can be detected by B-ultrasound at 12-18 weeks of pregnancy, it is necessary to strengthen the application of B-ultrasound in prenatal diagnosis, terminate pregnancy early, prevent the birth of a child with hydrocephalus, and reduce the birth rate of congenital hydrocephalus.

2. Promote eugenics knowledge and reduce the number of births

According to relevant data, the risk of fetal hydrocephalus may increase with the increase of the number of births of pregnant women. The incidence of hydrocephalus increases significantly in women with more than two births. Therefore, promoting eugenics knowledge and reducing the number of births is one of the ways to prevent hydrocephalus in children.

3. Promote childbearing at an appropriate age

Relevant data show that the incidence of hydrocephalus teratoma tends to increase with the age of the pregnant woman. Generally, the incidence is lowest in the 25-29 age group, but the difference is not significant. After the age of 30, the incidence tends to increase. Therefore, advocating childbearing at an appropriate age is of certain significance in preventing the occurrence of hydrocephalus.

4. Strengthen eugenics education,

Improve the cultural quality of the population. According to relevant statistical data, the occurrence of hydrocephalus in children is related to the educational level of the pregnant woman. The lower the educational level of the pregnant woman, the higher the incidence rate. The offspring of illiterate and semi-literate women have the highest incidence rate. Therefore, to improve the health quality of the population, we should first improve the cultural quality of the population to enhance the public's acceptance of eugenics education and self-care awareness.
