Jaundice Care

Jaundice care refers to the medical treatment and management provided to patients with jaundice, a condition that causes yellowing of the skin and eyes due to an excess of bilirubin in the blood. The care of patients with jaundice often requires a multidisciplinary approach involving the coordination of various healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, and dietitians. It may involve various interventions such as medication management, dietary changes, phototherapy, and, in severe cases, hospitalisation for advanced treatment options.

Treatments offered
The treatments offered in jaundice care depend on the underlying cause of the condition. Some of the common treatments at Progress Gastro Care include:

  • Medications: Medication management may be used to treat specific conditions that cause jaundice, such as antiviral drugs for hepatitis or steroids for autoimmune disorders.
  • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): A procedure that uses a small camera to examine the bile ducts and remove any blockages.
  • Surgery: In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove obstructions or treat underlying conditions such as cancer.
  • Liver transplant: In cases of severe liver damage, a liver transplant may be necessary to replace the damaged liver with a healthy one from a donor.
  • Dietary changes: Dietary counselling may be provided to help patients make changes to their diet to support liver function and improve overall health.
