Mentally Slow

Dear Patient,

I'm so sorry to hear this. What do you mean by mentally slow? Is the child slow to react or understand? Is it with language or actions? What are his symptoms?
Why was he on a ventilator? Was he premature? What other treatments did he receive?
Being on vent alone isn't a reason for developmental delay. But if the child was premature or had a severe injury during delivery to his oxygen supply to the brain, there may be some damage or delay then. However, whether this damage is permanent or temporary cannot be said without complete background and reports.
