Study on correlation among three kinds of bilirubin detection method / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore which operation and the accuracy of the detection method is better by exploring the correlation among three bilirubin detection methods.Methods 50 hospitalized neonates within 7 days after birth with visual jaundice were randomly selected.The total serum bilirubin level was measured by the routine laboratory method.At the same time,the serum bilirubin level was measured by bilirubin analyzer for capillary blood and transcutaneous bilirubin(TcB) measurement,then calculated the linear correlation coefficient of TcB level and TSB level,capillary blood bilirubin level and TSB level respectively to analyze their statistical significance,and get the linear regression model at last.Results Close correlation is existed between the capillary blood bilirubin measurement and the routine laboratory method,also the transcutaneous bilirubin measurement and the routine laboratory method.Moreover,the former is better than the later.Conclusion Capillary blood bilirubin is reliable in measuring serum bilirubin level of newborns.
