What should be done about jaundice and hemolysis in newborns?

Patient's question:

Friend just supplied today to visit the hospital, the condition is not very good. In the chat, I learned that the baby has a disease called neonatal jaundice hemolysis. The baby is only four days old. How the baby is. What kind of disease is this?

Doctor's answer:

The diagnosis is hemolytic jaundice, and the child should be hospitalized for treatment. The specific condition of the child needs to be evaluated. If the jaundice index is not particularly high, blue light therapy may be sufficient. If there are other abnormalities, transfusion of albumin may be required, which can significantly increase the cost.
It is recommended that you take the child to the neonatal department of a reputable public hospital in your local area for hospitalization as soon as possible. Generally, at least 7 to 14 days of hospital stay is required.
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
