Question
Is it possible to reduce the risk of neonatal jaundice through prenatal preventive measures?
Answer
Neonatal jaundice can be categorized into pathological, physiological, and breastmilk-related types. Pathological jaundice requires blue light therapy and symptomatic treatment, while physiological and breastmilk-related jaundice do not require medication intervention. Prenatal examinations can only screen for hemolytic jaundice and cannot guarantee complete prevention.
