Abstract:

Newborn swelling is usually a benign, self-reparable clinical condition. There are internationally accredited guidelines for treatment that determine the limits of the treatment of newborn embrace. Our research is aimed at investigating compliance with the guidelines for treatment of hyperbilirubinemia in cases hospitalized due to newborn clothes. The records of the incidents deposited in our Hospital Newborn Clinic between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2010 due to the birth of the newborn were reviewed backward. The yellowness of all the incidents during bedtime was assessed according to the treatment guidelines for hyperbilirubinemia. Patients with any clinical risk factor or additional problem for severe hyperbilirubinemia, in the limit or above which requires treatment for serum bilirubin levels during pregnancy, "Baby Treatment Requirements" are defined as "Baby Untreatment Requirements" if the serum bilirubin levels during pregnancy are below the level specified in the treatment guide and the symptoms are not clinical risk factors in terms of severe hyperbilirubinemia development. During the study, 267 male (51.5%) were infected due to newborn clothes, the average pregnancy age of 518 adults was 37.2±2.2 weeks, and the birth weight was 2988.3±617 grams. The number of patients hospitalized according to the current treatment guidelines in the treatment of newborn swelling was 391 (75.4%). In comparison with babies that require and do not require treatment, there was no significant statistical difference between the groups in terms of pregnancy age, birth weight, form of birth, multiple pregnancy and parental marriage frequency, while the male babies in the group that requires treatment were statistically higher (p=0.03). It was considered to be properly monitored in order to prevent the development of bilirubin encephalopathy, but unnecessary examinations and treatments should be avoided.
