Answer / Satya Prakash

Neonatal conditions like jaundice and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) present unique challenges due to a baby's immature physiology. Jaundice is characterized by yellowing of the skin and eyes, caused by an excess of bilirubin. Management involves phototherapy, which uses specialized lights to break down bilirubin. For RDS, which is often caused by a lack of surfactant, treatment may involve administering artificial surfactant or providing oxygen and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to support breathing. Close monitoring in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is crucial for managing these conditions.
