RESUMO
Objective To observe the intervention effect of premature pathological jaundice treated with conventional blue light phototherapy combined with acupoint massage plus body massage. Methods Ninety premature infants with pathological jaundice were randomized into control group 1, control group 2 and observation group, 30 cases in each group. The control group 1 was given blue light phototherapy plus oral use of vitamin B2, the control group 2 was given body massage based on the treatment for the control group 1, and observation group was given acupoint massage based on the treatment for the control group 2, the treatment for the three groups lasting for 7 continuous days. Before and after treatment, the levels of transcutaneous bilirubin (TCB), serum total bilirubin (TB), and serum direct bilirubin (DB) were observed, and then the therapeutic effects on jaundice in the three groups were compared. Results After treatment, the overall therapeutic effect and the daily decline of TCB, TB and DB in the observation group were superior to those in the two control groups, the difference being significant (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). In the control group 2, the post-treatment average decline of TB and the decline of TCB on treatment day 4-7 were superior to those in the control group 1, the difference being significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Acupoint massage plus body massage is effective and safe for the treatment of pathological jaundice in premature infants, and the therapy being simple and practical.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the levels of myocardium enzymes and CRP in the neonatus with pathological jaundice. Methods The myocardium and CRP of observation group(60 patients) were detected before and after treatment. The two indexes were also observed in the control group ( 40 patients ). Result The myocardium enzymes,bilirubins and CRP were normal in the control group. However,they were significantly higher than that of control group( allP ＜ 0. 01 ). After treatment, they decreased significantly in observation group( all P ＜ 0. 05 ) except CRP. Conclusion The myocardium damage could happen in the neonatus with pathological jaundice,and the protection of the myocardium should be emphasized.
RESUMO
A clinical and hematological observation was performed on 136 newborn infants who were admitted to dept. of Pediatrics of Chosun University Hospital from Junly, 1976 to June, 1980 and were diagnosed of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. The following results were obtained 1) The incidence of hyperbilirubinemia in male (64.0%) was more than female. 2) The highest monthly incidence was seen in June with 23 cases. (16.9%) 3) In the observation of the gestational period, its incidence was highest in full-term neonate with 103 cases. (79.3%). The mean value of serum bilirubin was highest in postmature neonate (19.70mg%). 4) In the obseervatio of the delivery type, the mean value of serum bilirubin was highest in vacuum and forcep delivery (17.81mg%). 5) The mean value of serum bilirubin was more higher in those of low birth weight group. 6) In the distribution of peak value of serum bilirubin, a group of 10.1~20.0mg% occupied 75.7%. 7) Idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia was the most common cause of pathological hyper bilirubinemia, with 79 cases. (58.1%). In the group of blood incompathibily, visible jaundice was begun earliest and mean value of serum bilirubin was highest. 8) Sepsis among the infection was the most important factor in the cause of neonatal hyper bilirubinemia with 18 cases (51.4%). 9) The most common blood types of mother-baby in ABO blood incompatibility was O-B with 8 cases (61.5%). 10) The exchange transfusions were performed on 13 cases (9.5%) and the rate of performance was the highest in blood incompatibility.
