beta-Thromboglobulin levels in plasma of jaundiced neonates exposed to phototherapy.
It has been suggested that changes take place in human platelets when they are exposed to fluorescent light of 10.8W/m2/sec at 460 nm. Loss of ability to aggregate and increase in turnover rate have been reported. However, studies of the effect of fluorescent light on adult platelets when exposed to the level of irradiance used clinically (3.5W/m2/sec) for 60 min did not reveal this effect. A s...

متن کاملEffect of phototherapy on behaviour of jaundiced neonates.
Thirty full term newborns appropriate for gestational age with icterus neonatorum were divided into two groups of 15 each. Group I (study group) newborns had serum bilirubin in the range of 12.1 to 15.0 mg/dl. Group II (control group) included neonates with serum bilirubin in the range of 8 to 12.0 mg/dl. Only the study group was given phototherapy. The comparative study of neonatal behaviour i...
متن کاملEffects of infant massage on jaundiced neonates undergoing phototherapy
BACKGROUND Infant massage is a natural way for caregivers to improve health, sleep patterns, and reduce colic. We aimed to investigate the effects of infant massage on neonates with jaundice who are also receiving phototherapy. METHODS Full-term neonates with jaundice, admitted for phototherapy at a regional teaching hospital, were randomly allocated to either a control group or a massage gro...
متن کاملPhototherapy motivates protein and lipid oxidation in jaundiced term and late term neonates
Background: Hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most important complications encountered in neonatal units. It has been proposed that phototherapy yields oxidative stress. Therefore, this study was undertaken to survey the levels of antioxidant and oxidative stress in the serum of neonates before and after phototherapy. Methods: This study was performed on thirty-five healthy, late preterm (>35 w...
