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.

متن کاملTranscutaneous bilirubin measurement in healthy Saudi term newborns
I read with interest the study by Alsaedi1 on the transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) measurement in healthy Saudi term newborns. The author addressed that TcB measurement provided accurate estimates of total serum bilirubin (TSB) values and it can be used effectively to screen newborns for significant jaundice.1 I presume that such conclusion ought to be cautiously taken. Apart from 4 limitations a...

متن کاملDiagnostic Usefulness of Transcutaneous Bilirubinometry in Very Preterm Newborns
BACKGROUND This study was performed to find out whether transcutaneous bilirubinometry could be a valid screening method for hyperbilirubinemia in preterm infants, especially for those who needed mechanical ventilation. METHODS We evaluated 63 preterm Iranian newborns who were managed in the neonatal intensive care unit of Shahidbeheshti University Hospital, Isfahan, Iran from April 2009 to A...
