Full Term New Born Baby Turning Blue Due To Irregular Heart Beat
our grandson is 2 days old today and they sent him to a another hospital today after he started turning blue and they said he had an irregular heart beat and they were doing a spinal time on him also. He was full term and had regular montering during the intire preganacy.
Hi Thanks for writing to health care magic. Turning blue with irregular heart beat indicates serious cyanotic heart disease . Needs urgent ICU care and echocardiogram , ECG to identify the cause Prostaglandin is usually given in such sick babies to stabilise them temporarily. He may need ventilation and inotropic support too. Wishing him good health Regards Dr Arun
