Jaundice check

Astragalus examination is a check for physiological jaundice that occurs after birth. Physiological jaundice is a gradual increase in serum bilirubin from 17 to 51 μmol/L (1 to 3 mg/dl) at birth to 86 μmol after 24 hours of birth. L (5mg / dl) or more, clinical jaundice and no other symptoms, resolved within 1 to 2 weeks. Serum bilirubin in physiological jaundice does not exceed 204 μmol/L (12 mg/dl), and premature infants do not exceed 255 μmol/L (15 mg/dl). However, serum bilirubin in some premature infants is less than 204μmol/L (12mg/dl), and bilirubin encephalopathy can also occur. It should be vigilant against physiological jaundice to prevent misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis of pathological jaundice. Basic Information Specialist classification: growth and development examination classification: blood examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Generally it is normal. Normal value: Serum bilirubin (term): 0-12mg/dl Serum bilirubin (premature): 0-15mg/dl Above normal: Common in children with physiological jaundice or liver disease. negative: Positive: Tips: Actively cooperate with the doctor's work. Normal value Clinically, jaundice occurs without other symptoms and resolves within 1 to 2 weeks. Serum bilirubin in physiological jaundice does not exceed 204 μmol/L (12 mg/dl) in term infants, and does not exceed 255 μmol/L (15 mg/dl) in preterm infants. Clinical significance Abnormal result Pathological jaundice, bilirubin encephalopathy, etc. Serotonin peaks over 205 mmol/L (12 mg/dl) in full-term infants, over 256 mmol/L (15 mg/dl), or more than 85 mmol/L (5 mg/dl) per day. The combined bilirubin concentration exceeded 25.6 mmol/L (15 mg/dl). The Huanghua Index has increased significantly. Urinary bilirubin positive and urinary biliary test positive or negative. People who need to be checked Newborns have jaundice.
