New medical achievement for the premature and newborn department at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Madinah
With the grace of God, the Premature and Newborn Department at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Madinah under the supervision of Dr. Khalil Al-Taweel, the Preterm and Newborn Consultant, managed to treat a baby girl weighing 900 grams, who was born after only 28 weeks of pregnancy, the baby experienced tingling of the radial artery in the hands, disturbance and a severe rise in arterial tension in the upper extremities and parts of the right chest wall and the face on the first day of her birth; which resulted in a severe drop in blood circulation and pallor in color, which included the upper limbs of the fingers to the shoulders and parts of the right side of the chest and forehead. This state of disorder continued repeatedly and intermittently which made the medical team intervene in the diagnosis and treatment of the newborn.
The occurrence of this arterial tension in various parts of the body with this degree of severity after a puncture of the radial artery of a premature baby weighing less than a kilogram is considered one of the very rare cases, and by the grace of God, the girl left the hospital when she weighed one kilo and 800 grams and is in a good health condition.
It is worth noting that this type of care depends on modern medical technology, which is in line with the vision of Al-Mouwasat Medical Services Company to attract talents and delicate sub-specialties through the use of the latest technologies and advanced medical equipment in this field.
