Title: [Results of phototherapy in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia using green and blue light]. Author: Hodr R, Kepertová M, Skutilová J. Journal: Cesk Pediatr; 1990 Apr; 45(4):221-3. PubMed ID: 2249276. Abstract: In a group of normal newborns with birth weights of 2500 g and more treated on account of hyperbilirubinaemia the authors recorded a significantly shorter period of decline of serum bilirubin in 40 children with blue light phototherapy than in 40 children with green light phototherapy. The period of decline of bilirubinaemia with green light phototherapy did not differ on average from the period of spontaneous decline recorded in a group of 40 normal neonates with untreated hyperbilirubinaemia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
