Abstract:
Objective To study the influence of exchange transfusion therapy on the complications and prognosis in newborns with bilirubin encephalopathy.Methods From June 2013 to June 2016,76 children with bilirubin encephalopathy in Feicheng People's Hospital were selected and divided into study group(n =41) and control group(n =35) according to whether or not accepted the exchange transfusion treatment.The levels of total bilirubin (TBIL),indirect bilirubin(IBIL),direct bilirubin(DBIL) and the ratio of total bilirubin to plasma albumin(B/A)were detected and compared between the two groups.The complications and prognosis of the two groups were recorded.Results After exchange transfusion,the TBIL,IBIL,DBIL and B/A values in the study group were (209.49 ± 48.82) μmol/L,(201.81 ± 39.62) μmoL/L,(21.92 ± 19.47) μmoL/L and (5.15 ± 1.89),respectively,which were significantly lower than those before exchange transfusion [(492.35 ± 42.41) μmol/L,(439.44 ± 52.56) μmol/L,(69.38 ± 21.56) μmol/L and (13.28 ± 0.40)] (t =28.007,23.117,10.461,26.947,all P < 0.05).The incidence rates of anemia,sinus bradycardia and electrolyte disturbances in the study group were 48.78%,48.78,60.98%,respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the control group(17.14%,14.29%,14.29%) (x2 =8.397,10.178,17.228,all P < 0.05).The incidence rates of death,hearing impairment and brain damage in the study group were 7.32%,70.73% and 12.20%,respectively,which in the control group were 11.43%,71.43% and 14.29%,respectively,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2 =0.382,0.004,0.072,all P > 0.05).Conclusion Exchange transfusion can significantly reduce the levels of bilirubin and B/A in the treatment of newborns with bilirubin encephalopathy,but it can increase the incidence rate of anemia,sinus bradycardia and electrolyte disturbances,which has no significant influence on the prognosis of patients.
