Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFHemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that is crucial for transporting oxygen throughout the body.
- In newborns, the level of hemoglobin can vary depending on factors such as gestational age and overall health.
- Understanding normal hemoglobin levels in newborns is important for assessing their health and development.
Key Points
- In newborns, the typical range of hemoglobin levels is generally between 17 to 19 grams per deciliter.
- This higher level of hemoglobin is necessary to support the infant's oxygen transport needs, particularly after birth when the baby transitions from receiving oxygen through the placenta to breathing independently.
- Newborns typically have higher hemoglobin levels compared to adults due to their adaptation to the intrauterine environment.
Hence, the correct answer is '17-19 Gram'.
