| Abstract: | Abstract: Aim - To determine effect of phototherapy on total serum calcium level in preterm ( weighing more than 1500 gm) and term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia. Method- This study was performed on 100 jaundiced preterm and term neonates out of which 58 male and 42 female that were managed with phototherapy. Our study was a prospective study conducted in SIMS Hapur from October 2019- September 2021 to see total calcium level before and after 48 hr of phototherapy. Detail regarding gestational age, sex, birth weight, mode of delivery, day of life, symptom of hypercalcemia, were collected. Neonate (2-28 day of life), gestational age more than 34 week , birth weight >1500 gm was included in the study. Result- The study included 34 preterm and 66 term new born. Total serum calcium levels at baseline and 48 hours after phototherapy was 9.33 ± 0.90 mg/dl, 7.98 ± 0.37 mg/dl respectively in term neonates and 8.75 ± 1.11 mg/dl, 7.78 ± 0.45 mg/dl, respectively in preterm neonates. Incidence of decrease in calcium level s in study was 71%. Conclusion- This study reveals that the total serum calcium level declined after treatment with phototherapy. Jitteriness was most commonly found in this study in both groups. Therefore, this study recommends to monitor total serum calcium level till cessation of phototherapy. |
