Question
What are the treatment methods for a newborn who is vomiting blood?
Answer
The baby vomited a little blood this morning, and after a medical examination, it was diagnosed as a deficiency of vitamin K1. Muscle injections to supplement vitamin K1 are required, which is an effective treatment method for vitamin K deficiency. Vitamin K deficiency may lead to neonatal hemorrhagic disease, causing abnormalities in coagulation function. If not treated promptly, it may lead to dangerous consequences, such as cerebral hemorrhage.
