Perinatal pathology

Perinatal disorders include injuries sustained during the period preceding childbirth or during childbirth. The most common disorders include hypoxic or ischemic brain damage, and less frequently, infectious processes.

The assessment of the well-being of childbirth and the degree of adaptation of the child is the Apgar score; the scoring of the child's condition includes skin color, heart rate, respiration, muscle tone, and reflex irritability. The score is given immediately after birth and at 5 minutes.

High scores are above 8.

Often, all motor and mental developmental disorders are viewed by doctors through the prism of perinatal problems – presumed hypoxia, umbilical cord entanglement, prolonged anhydrous period, etc.

If the child truly experienced stress during childbirth, they will have a low initial Apgar score, or due to the presence of problems, the child will be transferred to intensive care or to a pregnancy pathology department where active therapy will be administered.

A child who suffered birth trauma will develop slowly from the very first day, later starting to hold their head up, roll over, and sit up. To accelerate recovery, rehabilitation measures are carried out – massage, gymnastics, and sometimes vascular and nootropic drugs are prescribed.

In case of birth trauma to the cervical spine, a syndrome of motor disorders may be observed; correction can be performed using osteopathic methods.

Overall, it can be noted that there is an overdiagnosis of perinatal disorders. That is, any developmental delay, regardless of when it was diagnosed, is associated with perinatal stress, pushing the true causes of the disorders into the background.

If developmental delay is detected later, after a period of relatively normal development, then serious diagnostics are required to identify postnatal factors that could have caused complications to the brain (vaccination, infection, decompensation of metabolic disorders). Only in this case is it possible to quickly eliminate the damaging factor and begin the rehabilitation process.

Carrying out rehabilitation or developmental stimulation against the background of an ongoing inflammatory process will be ineffective, and sometimes will lead to worsening of the situation and overexcitation of the child.

How does treatment work at the "PlanetaMed" clinic?

We strongly believe that the treatment of complex diseases should address the root cause rather than just managing the symptoms. Therefore, our work is based on a precise algorithm that allows us to see the full picture of the body’s condition and tailor an individualized therapy program, ensuring the fastest possible recovery.
Stage 1/4
Comprehensive diagnostics

The first stage is a comprehensive examination of the body.

We go beyond simply making a diagnosis. It is crucial for us to understand how all body systems function, evaluate metabolic processes, inflammatory activity, immune status, gut and mitochondrial health, vitamin and trace element deficiencies, as well as other indicators that may influence the development of the disease.

It is high-quality diagnostics that forms the foundation of effective treatment.

What is included in the primary diagnostic list?

  1. Complete blood count (CBC)
  2. Biochemical blood test (total protein, lactate, bilirubin, urea, creatinine, ALT, AST, eosinophil cationic protein, NSE, S100, total IgE, TNF-alpha, C-reactive protein, rheumatoid factor)
  3. Urine organic acids — 60 parameters (urine)
  4. Amino acids — 48 parameters (blood)
  5. ASO (Antistreptolysin O)
  6. Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), quantitative

*Additional data may be required; the clinic administrators will provide you with more precise information.

Stage 2/4
Identifying the cause of the disease

The exact same diagnosis can have completely different causes. Our task is to find the specific mechanism that led to the development of the illness in your particular case.

We analyze the examination results, medical history, and clinical picture to determine the root causes of the disease: chronic inflammation, metabolic disorders, mitochondrial dysfunction, toxic load, immune disorders, deficiency states, and other factors.

By addressing the cause, rather than just the symptoms, we create the foundation for sustainable results.

Stage 3/4
Individualized treatment plan

After establishing a complete clinical picture, the doctor develops a personalized treatment program.

Depending on the patient's condition, it may include:

  • infusion therapy;
  • dietary adjustments;
  • ketogenic and metabolic programs;
  • mitochondrial support;
  • gut restoration;
  • anti-inflammatory therapy;
  • cellular technologies;
  • nutritional support and other modern methods.

Each plan is created individually, taking into account age, diagnosis, examination results, and treatment goals.

Stage 4/4
Support at all stages

Treatment is a process that requires monitoring and timely adjustments.

Our specialists accompany the patient throughout the entire program: they evaluate progress, monitor health indicators, adjust prescriptions, and answer any questions that arise. This approach allows us to adapt the treatment in a timely manner and achieve the best possible results for each patient.

At PlanetaMed, we do not treat an isolated diagnosis — we work with the body as a whole, helping to restore its own resources and regain quality of life.
