Neonatal Jaundice Test & Treatment

Neonatal jaundice is a common condition in newborns that causes yellowing of the skin and eyes due to elevated levels of bilirubin in the blood.

Early detection of neonatal jaundice is crucial to prevent potential complications and ensure prompt treatment for the baby’s well-being.

The Neonatal Jaundice Test involves a simple blood test to measure the baby’s bilirubin levels. The procedure is quick and minimally invasive.

The Neonatal Jaundice Test is generally not painful for the baby. The blood sample is collected with a small prick, and any discomfort is usually minimal.

Risk factors for neonatal jaundice may include prematurity, blood group incompatibility, and a family history of jaundice.

The frequency of the Neonatal Jaundice Test depends on the baby’s risk factors and initial bilirubin levels. Our healthcare professionals will determine the appropriate testing schedule.
