Abstract

 INTRODUCTION: Neonatal JAUNDICE is a common finding in the first few days after birth. About 60% of term NEONATEs and 80% of preterm NEONATEs have JAUNDICE. Regarding high prevalence and potential complications of neonatal JAUNDICE, particularly in central nervous system, we studied the NEONATEs with JAUNDICE admitted in the Besat hospital in Sanandaj in 1998. MATERIALS & METHODS: This was a descriptive study. Data was collected from the patient`s files. The subjects were 404 NEONATEs with neonatal JAUNDICE admitted in Besat hospital in 1998.RESULTS:Of 404 NEONATEs with neonatal JAUNDICE, 57% were male and 42.3% were female. The majority of cases were term NEONATEs (92.3%). The most of them (66.9%) were born by normal vaginal delivery while 33.1% were born by cesarean section. The relative frequency of their maternal gravidity were as follow: first pregnancy, 65.8%; second to fifth pregnancy, 31.7%; sixth pregnancy or more, 2.5%. The ethiologies of neonatal JAUNDICE in our study were as follow: ABO incompatibility, 18%; Rh incompatibility, 6.6%; G6PD deficiency, 4.1%; low birth weight, 20.5%. The rest of the cases had unknown ethiology. In more than 95 persent of cases, icterus was presented during the first week after birth. CONCLUSIONS: Regarding our study, the most common ethiologies of pathologic neonatal JAUNDICE are blood group incompatibility and low birth weight. So, education of parents and take necessary measures for population at risk to decrease incidence rate of pathologic neonatal JAUNDICE are recommended.
