Patient's question:
My friend just had a baby a few days ago, and their complexion has been getting yellower and yellower. But the doctor said it's normal for newborns to have a yellow complexion. So, what does newborn jaundice look like? What kind is considered abnormal and needs treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, when the total bilirubin in serum is between 17.1～34.2μmol/L and jaundice cannot be observed with the naked eye, it is called latent jaundice or subclinical jaundice; when the concentration of total bilirubin in the blood exceeds 34.2μmol/L, jaundice can be clinically detected, also known as manifest jaundice. Multiple domestic studies and clinical observations have confirmed that Mimi Ai can effectively reduce the serum bilirubin levels in premature infants. Early application is even more effective in preventing and treating neonatal jaundice.
