RESEARCH FOR THE EFFECTS OF Rh AND AB0 INCOMPATIBILITY IN NEWBORN INFANTS ON TOTAL BILIRUBIN LEVELS WITHIN THE FIRST 24 HOURS IN AND AROUND KÜTAHYA
Öz
Hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common clinic findings in the newborn. Hyperbilirubinemia is defined as rising of the plasma level of bilirubin such an extent that it makes sclera and skin yellow. Hyperbilirubinemia might cause death and sequellae. Its main causes are AB0 incompatibility, Rh incompatibility, G-6-PD deficiency and Subgroup incompatibility. It was aimed this study to research the effect of AB0 and Rh incompatibility on total serum bilirubin (TSB) levels of the newborn infants who had been hospitalized due to hyperbilirubinemia diagnosis within the first 24 hours after birth. The subjects were 40 hyperbilirubinemia newborn infants (23 females, 17 males). It was found that TSB levels of the hyperbilirubinemia newborn infants with AB0 and Rh incompatibility were higher than TSB levels of the other hyperbilirubinemia newborn infants and that the difference was statistically significant (p<0,05).
