Patient's question:
The doll just appeared jaundiced skin and yellow eyes three days after birth. Regarding this phenomenon, the mother is really very anxious. I would like to ask what is the normal range of jaundice values for the baby?Doctor's answer:
When a baby develops jaundice, it is essential to visit a hospital promptly to prevent the baby's brain from being affected, which could lead to developmental issues. The jaundice level should be maintained at 204 μmol/L, as this is considered normal. However, it is also important to consider the baby's specific condition. Some babies are premature infants, and for premature infants, jaundice levels as high as 255 μmol/L are still considered normal.
