Newborn jaundice typically has a transcutaneous bilirubin level below 10 (values may vary slightly due to different instruments); if blood is drawn to measure the bilirubin level in the blood, the normal value is usually below 205 umol/l (12 mg/dl). The normal total bilirubin level for a 30-day-old infant ranges from 1.7 to 17.1 umol/l (0.1 to 1.0 mg/dl). Direct bilirubin is between 0 to 6.8 umol/l (0 to 0.4 mg/dl), and indirect bilirubin is between 1.7 to 10.2 umol/l (0.1 to 0.6 mg/dl). Urinalysis is necessary to determine the true bilirubin level, as transcutaneous bilirubin measurement can be affected by the child’s skin color and body fat thickness.
Asphyxia refers to a condition where the fetus experiences respiratory and circulatory obstruction in the abdomen and stomach due to various reasons during childbirth, leading to a lack of spontaneous breathing or irregular breathing within one minute after birth. The main pathophysiological changes include hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and acidosis. In severe cases of asphyxia, even after 30 seconds of assisted ventilation with oxygen and chest compression, the condition does not improve. Neurological symptoms may occur. Strengthening nursing care, proper feeding, and preventing and treating infections and complications are recommended.
