Patient's question:
Sister just had a baby and was chatting, but the doctor said the child has biliary atresia and needs further treatment. I want to ask, is it effective for newborns with biliary atresia to be exposed to blue light?Doctor's answer:
For newborns, jaundice is a relatively common disease. However, due to the symptoms of jaundice in newborns, the required treatment methods will also vary. If a newborn has jaundice and it is mild, it can be further treated through blue light therapy. If a newborn has jaundice with biliary atresia, blue light therapy will not be particularly effective for treatment. Therefore, for newborns with jaundice, a corresponding treatment plan must be formulated after further examination by a doctor.
