[Permanent neurological damage].
Permanent neonatal neurologic injury is often a result of intraventricular and intraparenchymal hemorrhage, hydrocephalus or porencephaly, cerebral congenital malformation, congenital infections, or hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy syndrome. The damage must be communicated to the newborn's parents, who will obviously ask about their child's future. The news given to both parents must be truthful, showing a sense of empathy, with some degree of the problem's severity withnel however, so as to allow the time necessary for them to adjust to the blow slowly. It is also useful to emphasize that the individual medical facility is capable of timely diagnoses, correct therapy, and long-term follow-up. In short, of truth and human kindness.
