Babies born as a result of infection ranging from lesions to mikrosefali (small head) or hidrosefali (head edema), inflammation of the eye, inflammation of the brain (encephalitis) as well as a thorough skin eruption. If babies born with congenital herpes is not treated the possibility of 50-80% will die. Transmission to infants occurs largely in the birth process that is approximately 90% rest 5% of the fetus through the placenta or the fetus directly (fetal) 5% remaining HSV2 infection acquired after the delivery. Long contact with infected fluids can increase the risk of babies contracting.

The fix, herpes simplex infection in newborn babies is very worrying and give poor predictions result if not treated immediately. Fortunately, during this treatment can reduce mortality as well as prevent the progression of the disease herpes infection in the central nervous system or disseminated infection (dissemination body gets another body). Action against child from the mother’s genital herpes sufferers conducted in diverse, including a hospital that promotes isolation. Furthermore, in infants the virus culture examination, liver function and fluid serebrospinalis (brain). In addition to tight control during the first month of life.

Therefore, skin care is most important is not to prevent dry skin.

HIV

The fetus is conceived mother with HIV at greater risk of the same viral infections. Transmission can be through the placenta. When out through the birth canal or from the infected mother’s milk. To prevent transmission of the necessary supervision and treatment. Starting from early detection, action cesarean delivery of drugs to prevent the benefits of breastfeeding to the baby.

The provision of antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) in HIV-infected infants in the first week after birth will provide an opportunity to live longer. Provision of ARVs as soon as possible to help raise the immune system is weakened by a virus attack. Because positive infants infected with HIV are unable to build immune system endurance. Consequently, if there is a disease that attacks the baby will be sick and die quickly. According to the study infants received antiretroviral therapy will have the opportunity to live longer.
