The normal value of jaundice in newborn babies is a concern for novice parents. Because the deviation of jaundice indicators from the standard indicates that there may be health problems with the baby. But as the age of the baby increases, there will also be corresponding changes in jaundice values. So, is it normal for a baby to have jaundice of 9.1 per month?
Every newborn baby will experience jaundice, and parents will not worry about normal physiological jaundice. But if the jaundice lasts for too long, it has a pathological tendency. If the average jaundice measured by a baby at one month is below 10, it is generally considered normal. Therefore, for a one month old infant with jaundice detection value of 9.1, it can be considered normal.
For some babies who may still have high jaundice levels at full moon, what necessary measures should parents of newborn babies take?
1. Medication can be used to reduce yellowing. When there are symptoms of pathological jaundice, treatment with anti jaundice drugs should be administered under the guidance of a physician. Reducing the production of bilirubin in infants through medication can also correct symptoms such as metabolic acidosis caused by excessive jaundice.
2. Light therapy can also be used to reduce yellowing. That is to say, the treatment method of using blue light to reduce unconjugated bilirubin in serum.
3. Blood exchange therapy to reduce jaundice. This method is also an effective way to treat pathological jaundice. Blood exchange therapy can be used to reduce bilirubin, replace sensitized red blood cells, alleviate anemia, and achieve the goal of treating jaundice.
