Patient's question:
Please ask the doctor to take a look at my daughter's blood test report. She is a premature baby, born at 31 weeks, and has been in an incubator for 30 days. It has been nearly 53 days since then. I noticed that the baby's complexion is a bit yellow, so I took her to the hospital for liver function tests.Treatment history and effectiveness: Undergone blue light therapy. What help did it provide:
Please interpret the report and give some advice.
Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help clarify this for you. The child's liver function test shows slightly elevated bilirubin, but the increase is not significant. This may be related to the child being born prematurely. If this is the result after being exposed to blue light, it is recommended to continue with blue light treatment. Additionally, the child can take Yinzhihuang oral liquid. However, the glutamic amino transferase (GPT) level in the liver function test is quite high, so it is advisable to recheck the liver function after treatment. If necessary, an ultrasound of the liver, gallbladder, and spleen can be performed.
