ABSTRACT

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) represents a serious health problem for newborn (NB). In the best scenario, the patient survives but suffers an irreversible brain damage. This is mainly due to the absence of an adequate treatment. In this work, we present the results of the daily intranasal treatment with breast milk in a NB diagnosed with IVH. After 61 days of therapy, the patient showed a full recovery.
