Why might choledocolithiasis cause jaundice?
well, you see.. jaundice is caused by the elevation of UNCONJUGATED bilirubin level in our blood.. a high level of unconjugated bilirubin in blood will enter our body tissue and make our skin looks yellow.bilirubin is metabolized in the liver, thus making the unconjugated bilirubin changed into conjugated one. and these conjugated bilirubin will be excreted to our intestine and it will give color to our urine an feces.in patients with choledocolithiasis, there is an obstruction caused by the gallstone inside the duct where conjugated bilirubin should be excreted.. this obstruction makes the liver unable to metabolize the unconjugated bilirubin, and so the level of unconjugated bilirubin will rise, having effect of jaundice.

High levels of billirubin in the blood stream can result in?
jaundice the normal serum bilirubin level is 0.5 to 1.5mg%. jaundice occurs when the bilirubin level exceeds 2mg%. the increased blood level of bilirubin is called hyperbilirubinemia. excess bilirubin from blood diffuses into the tissues, skin and mucous membrane, colouring them yellow. this condition caused by overflow of bilirubin is called jaundice.
What is the relationship between the bilirubin and the amount of jaundice?
Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced during the breakdown of red blood cells, and its accumulation in the bloodstream is what causes jaundice. The severity of jaundice is directly related to the level of bilirubin; higher bilirubin levels typically result in more pronounced yellowing of the skin and eyes. Jaundice occurs when bilirubin levels exceed the normal range, indicating potential liver dysfunction, hemolysis, or bile duct obstruction. Monitoring bilirubin levels is essential for diagnosing and managing the underlying causes of jaundice.
Is 19.34 of bilirubin level in newborns considered to be in a critical stage?
Depends on the age, and if the baby was born prematurely. In both cases it is above the normal range, however newborns bilirubin levels drop significantly after about 1-2 weeks out of the womb. This is not a critically high level of bilirubin however, there are other variables to consider here so I would recommend checking with a doctor.
