How is infantile icterus to return a responsibility

summary

Infants are very vulnerable, the probability of illness is very high, infant jaundice can be divided into physiological and pathological two types. Physiological jaundice will appear within 2 to 3 days after birth, and the peak appears in 4 to 6 days, but it will subside within one week or 10 days. The process of premature infants may be too long, and there are basically no other symptoms except a little bad appetite during this period. If jaundice occurs within 24 hours after birth, and the serum bilirubin is high, and the duration of jaundice is more than 2 weeks, the premature infants will be longer In more than 4 weeks, or even deepening, it is pathological jaundice.

How is infantile icterus to return a responsibility

First: neonatal jaundice is the jaundice within 28 days of birth, that is, before the full moon. It is due to the abnormal metabolism of bilirubin in this period, resulting in high bilirubin content in the blood, which makes the skin, mucous membrane and sclera of the newborn appear jaundice symptoms.

Second: the metabolic abnormalities related to bilirubin can cause the occurrence of the disease, such as the destruction of red blood cells and the increase of hepatointestinal circulation, which makes the serum unable to combine with bilirubin, resulting in excessive bilirubin production, liver bilirubin metabolism disorder, hepatocyte excretion of combined bilirubin disorder or bile duct obstruction, etc.

Third: the detection of bilirubin level is the main method to determine infant jaundice. Generally, the concentration of serum bilirubin can be determined by venous blood or micro blood method, and other auxiliary means can be used, such as erythrocyte fragility test, liver function test, ultrasound abdominal B-ultrasound, etc.

matters needing attention

The treatment method can be light therapy, that is, in the phototherapy box, the black eye mask covers both eyes, so as to avoid damaging the retina. Diapers are used to cover the perineum and anus, and the rest are exposed. One side light or two sides light can be used for continuous irradiation for a period of time.
