Standards for neonatal jaundice between 1 and 30 days old

Neonatal jaundice refers to the condition of jaundice in newborns who are less than one month old. Jaundice is a condition caused by abnormal bilirubin metabolism in infants, resulting in elevated bilirubin levels in the blood, resulting in yellowing of the skin, sclera and mucous membranes. Clinically, most common neonatal jaundice is physiological and is a temporary jaundice symptom that usually subsides within 10 days after birth. Under normal circumstances, the jaundice value of newborns is generally lower than 17-51 μmol/L (1-3 mg/dl) at birth, and it is visible if the jaundice value does not exceed 86 μmol/L (5 mg/dl) on the sixth and seventh days after birth. is normal. Generally speaking, neonatal jaundice can be divided into physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice. Physiological jaundice is characterized by appearing 2-3 days after birth, reaching a peak at 4-5 days, and subsides within 2 weeks in full-term infants and within 4 weeks in premature infants. Jaundice is generally mild, except for the cheek skin. Except for mild jaundice of the sclera and sclera, there are no other abnormal clinical symptoms or signs. Physiological jaundice does not require special treatment. Pay attention to the supply of water and heat during jaundice. Pathological jaundice refers to jaundice that appears too early, too fast, or disappears delayed, and the degree of jaundice is severe. The total bilirubin is greater than 12.9 mg/dl in term infants, greater than 15 mg/dl in premature infants, or the jaundice value exceeds 5 mg within 24 hours. /dl. If the neonatal jaundice value exceeds the normal range, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time and have it diagnosed and treated by a professional doctor. \”A healthy child is like the sun in spring, full of hope and vitality.\” This classic saying reminds us that the health of our children is our greatest wish.
