Hi Anon,
Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for your question. Sorry to hear this about your daughter.
Treatment for anoxic brain injury are:
Initial Treatment
Oxygen therapy to increase the amount of oxygen in the blood
Medication to help get adequate oxygenated blood to the brain
Efforts to cool the brain to help limit brain damage
Rehabilitation
Recovery from brain damage can be uncertain. It will also take time. Your chance for recovery depends on how long and how severely you were deprived of oxygen. Many people with mild brain damage can usually recover most of the lost functions.
During rehabilitation, you and your family may work with:
Physical therapist to retrain motor skills, such as walking
Occupational therapist to improve daily skills, such as dressing and going to the bathroom
Speech therapist to work on language problems
Psychologist for behavior and emotional issues related to the injury
Recovery can take months, or even years. In many cases, full recovery is never achieved, but some can successfully learn to live with any remaining disabilities. In general, the sooner rehabilitation starts, the better the outcome. Hope this information has helped.
Here are some resources for you
Best,
Daisy
