Question
What level of bilirubin count is considered normal for neonatal jaundice?
Answer
A bilirubin level of 20.5 at 4 days old, excluding ABO hemolytic disease. The liver function test shows elevated bilirubin. What kind of help do you need: treatment options? Have you already been treated with blue light therapy, and do you need to be administered albumin injections. Hello, I’m glad to answer your question. For newborns, it is very normal to have jaundice within the first 12 days after birth. However, if it persists beyond 14 days, medication may be needed to control the jaundice. Based on your situation, medication is required to control the jaundice as it may be physiological jaundice. Treatment can be combined with blue light therapy and oral administration of Baicalin granules. If the condition does not improve, consider administering albumin injections. I hope my answer is helpful.
