What is the normal value of infant jaundice index

summary

Now the post-80s and post-90s are gradually getting married and having children, but they don't know much about children's health problems. Among them, the problem of neonatal jaundice is particularly prominent. As a child's parents, how dare you say that you really understand the infant jaundice index?

What is the normal value of infant jaundice index

Generally, we can refer to these values. The jaundice index of full-term neonates was less than 12 mg / dl (205.2 umol / L); the jaundice index of preterm infants was less than 15 mg / dl (256.5 umol / L), or the daily increase was less than 5 mg / dl (85.5 umol / L), exceeding this standard was pathological jaundice.

As long as the term infant does not exceed 204 μ mol / L (12mg / dl) and the premature infant does not exceed 255 μ mol / L (15mg / dl), it is normal. In addition, physiological jaundice children in addition to skin yellow dye, in the appetite and spirit are not much influence, and generally within a month symptoms will automatically eliminate.

The two aspects mentioned above generally do not need to worry, but if it is a baby with pathological jaundice, not only the skin will change, but also cry and make noise, and the appetite is not good. If this is the case, the child's parents must take the baby to the hospital in time for treatment, because the consequences may be more serious. Never neglect and affect the health of children.
