Patient's question:
Female, 1 month illness/symptoms: Hemolytic Please ask how long does hemolytic jaundice generally require hospital treatment?Doctor's answer:
To determine the severity of hemolytic jaundice, conservative treatment generally requires about two weeks. If exchange transfusion is needed, it might be a bit faster.Follow-up question: The baby has been hospitalized for seven days. Last night, I asked the doctor that the bilirubin level is 215. Can the baby be discharged for home medication treatment? Taking Yinzhihuang, probiotics, and getting more sun exposure is okay?
Reply: The baby's bilirubin level is still a bit high. It's best to continue observing at the hospital for a few more days.
Follow-up question: It's hemolytic jaundice. I have Type O blood, and the baby has Type A blood. Last night, the doctor mentioned the bilirubin level is 215. I would like to take the baby home tomorrow for discharge. Can home medication treatment be done?
Follow-up question: Then, if we insist on discharge, can the baby be treated with medication at home under the current condition?
Reply: It depends on the baby's recovery. Home medication treatment is possible, but a follow-up visit to the hospital is required within one week.
