Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to compare the effectiveness and efficiency for precaution of severe hyperbilirubinemia in neonate by different follow-up methods of neonatal jaundice. There are two kinds of follow-up methods in the investigators clinical practice. The one is internet plus follow-up model, the other is conventional clinic follow-up method. Parents of the participant neonates can choose one by themselves. After parents of the participant signed informed consent, the investigators recorded several information including severe hyperbilirubinemia, length of phototherapy, follow-up times, et al. Then the investigators analysed these data in order to know what kind of follow-up method is better to prevent severe hyperbilirubinemia and more easy to be accepted.

Study population

neoborns, gestational age ≥ 28 weeks, corrected gestational age ≤ 44 weeks

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Gestational age ≥ 28 weeks, corrected gestational age ≤ 44 weeks;
  2. Presence of skin yellowing, percutaneous measurement of jaundice or serum concentration less than the phototherapy warning value for the same gestational age and day age group;
  3. The vital signs are stable and meet the discharge requirements;
  4. Agree to participate in this project and sign an form;
  5. Parents have a certain understanding ability to cooperate in this study;

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Direct ≥34mmol/L;
  2. Increased hepatic enzyme level more than twice of normal value;
  3. Those infants who have developed bilirubin encephalopathy or neurological damage due to other reasons before follow-up;
  4. Unable to continue follow-up due to other diseases.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of severe hyperbilirubinemia

    The peak concentration of serum bilirubin is more than the exchange criteria of same gestational age and day age group

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024

  2. Newborn follow-up rate

    Number of newborns who completed the follow-up program/total number of follow-up newborns

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence rate of acute bilirubin encephalopathy

    Number of infants with acute bilirubin encephalopathy/total number of follow-up newborns

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024

  2. Mean bilirubin level at admission

    sum total serum bilirubin of hospitalized newborns at admission/Total number of hospitalized newborns

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024

  3. Follow-up satisfaction

    Parents' comments of participating in the study

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024

  4. Average economic cost of treatment

    Treatment and transportation costs and so on

    Time frame: 10,01,2023 to 10,01,2024
