141 Total bilirubin rate of rise of in moderate preterm neonates: impact of gestational age

Background As compared to term neonates, those < 35 weeks gestation (wks GA) are at greater risk for both acute and chronic bilirubin encephalopathy (ABE, CBE). Among these with postnatal total bilirubin rate of rise, (TB ROR) at age 0 to 72 hours has been observed because of either loss placenta...

Zusammenfassung:Background As compared to term neonates, those < 35 weeks gestation (wks GA) are at greater risk for both acute and chronic bilirubin encephalopathy (ABE, CBE). Among these with postnatal total bilirubin rate of rise, (TB ROR) at age 0 to 72 hours has been observed because of either loss placental elimination system or increased postnatal production due to hemolysis. The ranges are known to vary > 8.5 umol/L/h in neonates with Rh disease to >3.4 umol/L/h at the 95th percentile track of the hour-specific nomogram. TB ROR in healthy term neonates is
