Background: Aximately 60% of normal birth infant become jaundiced in the first week of birth. The incidence of jaundice in the West Nusa Tenggara hospital in 3 years later (2012-2014) there were 1166 cases. Phototherapy of total serum bilirubin (TSB) increased. Clinical trials have validated the efficacy phototherapy in reducing excessive unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, and its implementation has been drastically confine the use of exchange transfusion (Bhutani, 2011). Objective:The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of jaundice before and after phototherapy, as well as analyze the influence phototherapy before and after the degree of jaundice in the newborn. Method:This type of research is pre-experimental research design using the approach one group pre-test and post-test design. The study population was all jaundice infants who were treated at Hospital NICU  room in West Nusa Tenggara Provence in May 2016. The sample was 15 respondents with acsidental sampling techniques. The method of data analysis with descriptive percentage univariate and bivariate analysis with test of rank correlation test (spearman) obtained significance value p = 0.000 < 0.05 and spearman correlation coefficients obtained by value p = 0.025 which means there is a strong correlation between the influence of phototherapy (24 hours) the degree of jaundice in the newborn. Result: The results were obtained degree of jaundice before phototherapy is as many as 9 degree 4 respondents (60%) and as many as 6 degrees five respondents (40%). After 24 hours phototherapy all respondents decreased the degree of jaundice and most have some degreen of jaundice 3 of 10  respondents (66,7%) by 5 respondents (33,3%). Discussion:Recommendations can be given is a gift phototherapy to decrease the degree of jaundice.

Background: To study the occurrence of hypocalcaemia in neonates with physiological unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia after 48 hours of phototherapy or at the end of phototherapy, in case duration of phototherapy was less than 48 hours.Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 100 term neonates (61 males and 39 females) admitted to Neonatal intensive care unit of Teerthankar Mahaveer Medical College, Moradabad with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia and requiring phototherapy. Total Serum bilirubin levels and serum calcium levels were checked before and after phototherapy. Neonates were assessed for clinical features of hypocalcemia i.e. jitteriness, irritability/excitability, lethargy and convulsions.Results: After phototherapy, there was hypocalcemia in 35.0% neonates. The difference between pre and post phototherapy serum calcium levels were found to be statistically significant (p <0.001). 2.86% of neonates developed jitteriness among those who had hypocalcemia. Hypocalcemia was more in subjects who received phototherapy for longer duration.Conclusions: Hypocalcaemia is a common complication of phototherapy. Therefore, calcium supplementation should be done in all neonates undergoing phototherapy.

Hyperbilirubinemia is a state where increase value of in serum bilirubin in the blood more > 5mg/dl, which is clinically characterized by jaundice on sclera and skin, hyperbilirubinemia can be caused by physiological processes, non-physiological, or a combination of both. Neonates were given early initiation will result in the expenditure of meconium early so tend to have a low risk of the occurrence of physiological hyperbilirubinemia. Research will aim to detect early initiation on the incidence of neonates physiologic hyperbilirubinemia in neonates born at Khadijah room Islamic Hospital Muhammadiyah Kendal. Research kind quasi-experiment by using plant form post test only in a body (one group post test only design). Population in this research patient newborn at Khadijah room Islamic Hospital Muhammadiyah Kendal. Research sample as much as 30  respondens early initiation and 30 respondens not early initiation by using technique purposive sampling. Data analysis included univariate analysis by finding frequency distribution, bivariate analysis with Mann-Whitney Test. The research result of bivariate analysis shows that neonates with early initiation total serum bilirubin value performed intervention group averaged 8,200mg/dl while control group averaged 11,647mg /dl. The initiation of early breastfeeding (IMD) effect on total serum billirubin content of the neonatus. The variables that have contributed to the total serum billirubin content were the implementation of early breastfeeding initiation (IMD) with an effect of 61.2% and influenced by other variables of 38.8%. The conclusion there is influence of early initiation of suckling on physiological hyprbilirubinemia at Islamic Hospital Muhammadiyah Kendal.

Background The gold standard for diagnosis of neonatal jaundice is total serum bilirubin (TSB) measurement. This method, however, is invasive, painful, and costly in terms of workload, time, and money. Moreover, repeated blood sampling may lead to significant blood loss, which is of particular concern in preterm infants. To overcome these drawbacks, non-invasive methods of bilirubin measurement have been proposed. Transcutaneous bilirubinometry (TcB) determines the yellowness of the subcutaneous tissue of a newborn infant by measuring the difference between optical densities for light in the blue and green wavelength regions.Objective To evaluate the accuracy of transcutaneous bilirubinometry for estimating TSB levels in neonatal jaundice.Methods Subjects were infants aged < 28 days with jaundice who had never been treated with phototherapy or exchange transfusion. The study was done from February to July 2016 in Mohammad Hoesin Hospital. Subjects underwent transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) and TSB assays, with a maximum interval of 15 minutes between tests.Results One hundred fifty patients were included in this study. The TcB values > 5 mg/dL were correlated to TSB > 5 mg/dL, with 100% sensitivity and 83.3% specificity. This cut-off point was obtained from a receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve with AUC 99.3% (95%CI 97.9 to 100%; P< 0.001).The correlation coefficients (r) for TSB and TcB measurements on the forehead were 0.897 (P<0.001).Conclusion Transcutaneous bilirubinometry can be used to accurately estimate TSB levels in neonatal jaundice, and may be useful in clinical practice as a non-invasive method to reduce blood sampling.

Background :To study the effect of phototherapy on serum calcium levels in neonates with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Methods : This hospital based longitudinal interventional study was conducted on 100 neonates with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Mullana, Ambala. Total serum bilirubin and serum calcium levels of each participants were checked before and at the end of phototherapy. Neonates were also checked for the clinical signs of hypocalcemia i.e. jitteriness, irritability, lethargy, and convulsions. Results : Atotal of 100 neonates with neonatal jaundice were included with 55% boys and 45 % girls whose mean age was 3.0 ± 0.95 days. Mean S.Bilirubin level before phototherapy was 13.92 ± 2.32 mg/dl which was reduced to 8.87 ± 2.18 mg/dl. S.Calcium levels pre-phototherapy were 8.66 ± 0.65 mg/dl which were reduced to 7.94 ± 1.05 mg/dl. It was found that 32% of the participants in total exhibited symptoms related to hypocalcemia. More term neonates (56.3%) experienced symptoms related to hypocalcemia compared to pre-terms (43.8%). Conclusion : It can be deduced that phototherapy induced hypocalcemia is a signicant concern and hence, neonates requiring phototherapy may be considered for calcium supplementation.

Obstructive jaundice of the newborn is a misnomer as fewer than half of all cases usually referred to as "obstructive jaundice" result from mechanical interference with the flow of bile. In the majority of cases, intrinsic liver disease is the cause of this type of jaundice. The term "cholestasis" more comprehensively describes the various disorders and the pathophysiology, which includes retention of direct-reacting (conjugated) bilirubin, bile acids, and other components of bile. Direct-reacting hyperbilirubinemia is almost always the first definitive sign of hepatobiliary dysfunction, often appearing during the first weeks of life just as the normally occurring, indirect-reacting (unconjugated) hyperbilirubinemia of physiologic jaundice of the newborn is receding. Initially, there may be uncertainty as to the significance of the persisting or recurring jaundice, particularly whether the direct-reacting fraction is elevated. As a general rule, when the direct-reacting portion exceeds 2.0 mg/dl and is more than 10% of the total serum bilirubin, it should be considered clinically significant. Although the direct-reacting fraction may occasionally account for 90% of total serum bilirubin, in most cases the direct-reacting portion will range only from 25% to 75%. The degree of variation has no diagnostic significance. As only water-soluble, direct-reacting bilirubin is excreted by the kidney, the presence of bilirubinuria may be used as confirmation of elevation of the direct-reacting fraction.
