RESUMO
Jaundice may be present at birth or appears at any time during the neonatal period, depending on the responsible condition and it should be considered for the infant a sign of risk with the degree of danger. Jaundice may represent dependent on factors that effect the production. Metabolism, excretion, and distribution of bilirubin after birth. So physical and hematological observation was performed on the 85 newborn infants who were treated phototherapy and phenobarbital therapy in Korea National Veterans Hospital in one year period, from March 1, 1980 to February 28, 1981. The following results are obtained 1) The highest monthly incidence was seen in June with 18 cases(21.1%). 2) The most common delivery type was cesarean section with 51 cases(60.0%). 3) The peak serum bilirubin value was reached 4days and incidence was estimated(41.2%). At that time, the nean value of serum bilirubin level estimated is 14.9%mg%. 4) No relationship0 between birth weight, mohter's parity, and serum bilirubin level. 5) The relationship between serum bilirubin level and gestational age, the premature infants appeared a highly increased level of serum bilirubin. 6) Conditions with low hemoglobin level and platelet counts revealed elevation tendency of serum bilirubin level. But no clear relationship between serum bilirubin level and reticulocyte counts.
