A Comparison between Transcutaneous Bilirubin (TcB) and Total Serum Bilirubin (TSB) Measurements in Term Neonates
Background: Transcutaneous bilirubinometry (TCB) is a simple method for estimating bilirubin levels in neonates. This method is noninvasive, quick, and painless. We aimed to compare serum and cutaneous bilirubin measurements in term neonates.Method: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 200 neonates with icter with birth weights of at least 2500 grams were studied. TCB was measured using a...
متن کاملEstimation of bilirubin in serum.
Most methods of estimating the concentration of bilirubin in serum are based on the van den Bergh reaction in which bilirubin couples with diazotized sulphanilic acid to give red " azobilirubin," the reaction being facilitated by the addition of an activator or catalyst such as ethanol. The many modifications of this reaction can be classified into two groups: (a) those in which ethanol is used...
متن کاملSerum Bilirubin Level Changes in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the Central Nervous System (CNS). In addition to the role of immune mediated mechanisms, oxidative and nitrosative stress also play an important role in neuropathology of MS. Bilirubin as an endogenous antioxidant has neuroprotective effects; however few studies have assessed the association between serum bilirubin level and MS....
متن کاملthe association between g6pd deficiency and total serum bilirubin level in icteric neonates
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd) deficiency is the most important disease of the hexose monophosphate pathway. deficiency of this enzym can lead to hemolysis of red blood cells. our aim was to study the prevalence of g6pd deficiency in relation to neonatal jaundice. we studied 456 clinically icteric neonates laboratory investigations included determination of direct and indirect serum b...
متن کاملNoninvasive estimation of serum bilirubin.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and clinical usefulness of a new computer-driven, hand-held device (Chromatics Colormate III) to estimate serum bilirubin from skin-reflectance (skin color) of neonates. STUDY DESIGN A total of 2441 infants (both term and premature) at two hospitals had repeated measurements of transcutaneous bilirubin. Of these infants, 900 had one...
