Serum bilirubin kinetics in intermittent phototherapy of physiological jaundice

S P Lau et al. Arch Dis Child. 1984 Sep.

Abstract

Thirty four term babies with physiological jaundice were subjected to continuous phototherapy and to two regimens of intermittent phototherapy. The difference in serum bilirubin kinetics between the three groups of treated babies was insignificant; a schedule of one in four hours of irradiation achieved the same treatment effect as continuous phototherapy.
