asian newborn with jaundice have decreased

A

hepatic UGT activity

40
Q

physio jaundice pathophys (3 reasons)

A

At bith high HCT w/ short life span= high Hb turnover
Decreased UGT activity until 2 wks of age
Sterile newborn gut= inc enterohepatic recycling (cant breakdown bilirubin to urobilinogen)

Hyperammonemia
n/inc: bilirubin, ALP
Increased PTT
hypoglycemia
elevated AST,ALT, LDH
42

43
Q

Breastfeeding failure jaundice is

A

exaggerated unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia inf FIRST week of life that is caused by lactation failure

44

normal infant stool

A

Normally pass dark sticky meconium during first 2 days of life
then should transition to yellowish or green stool in ingesting adequate milk

45
Q

breast milk jaundice time frame

A

starts age 3-5 days peaks at 2 weeks

46
Q

breast milk jaundice is what

A

High levels of B-glucuronidase in breast milke deconjugate intestinal bilirubin and increase enterohepatic circulation
Normal exam and adequate breastfeeding
Indirect (unconjugated) hyperbilirubinemia up to 10-30 mg/dl

47
Q

Rx breastfeeding failure jaundice

A

increase frequency and duration of feeds to stimulate milk production, adequate hydration and promote bilirubin excretion
