When a baby gets a fever and convulsions, the mother who photographed the situation with a smartphone shows a video to a doctor and posts the experience that led to an accurate diagnosis to the SNS and is becoming a hot topic. A medical professional said, “I want people with small children to refer to it.”
This post was made by a mother in her 30s living in Tokyo.
“The story of the second daughter who got into an ambulance because of a fever. I record it for someone.”
After writing on Twitter, the first girl, 1 year and 7 months old, got a high fever and began to cramp in her arms. The history of calling an ambulance is written.
And when the doctor shows the video, it is written that “This is the easiest to understand!
By the way, the second daughter was said to have been convulsed by heat such as a cold, and came home that day.
The mother says, “It was useful because I always watched tweets related to childcare and the response during febrile seizures remained in my head.”
There have been many responses to this post, such as "Thank you for posting your experiences" and "It was great to be able to respond calmly even if you knew it as knowledge".
By the way, the video at the beginning was taken by a father when another girl, 1 year and 5 months old, erupted in June and convulsed. .
I had a convulsion about a month ago, and at that time I took a picture with a smartphone because I received advice from a doctor.
The girl was later diagnosed with a sudden rash.
Masahiko Sakamoto, a pediatrician at the Saku Medical Center in Saku City, Nagano Prefecture, says “Smooth diagnosis is easy to do” with regard to how to take video with a smartphone when a convulsion occurs.
Febrile seizures are common in children aged 6 to 5 years, and when fever rises, they occur because the body's thermoregulatory function is immature, causing the body to get scared or stretched.
If there is a video at this time, it will be easier to distinguish between convulsions and other misleading symptoms such as chills, and it will be easier to take subsequent actions.
On top of that, Dr. Sakamoto says that if a child has cramps, it is important to first lay it down on a flat and safe place and turn his face sideways so that it won't be boring.
Fever cramps usually last within 5 minutes, but if you continue longer, call an ambulance, and in the meantime, take a video with your smartphone.
Dr. Sakamoto said, “When convulsions occur, mothers and fathers are often upset, and in the past, they sometimes could not accurately grasp the state of convulsions. But it ’s now easier to accurately convey the convulsions. ”
