Understanding Conventional Phototherapy

Neonatal Jaundice is a condition where the body gets yellow, especially the eyes and the skin due to high levels of bilirubin in the blood and conventional Phototherapy is one of the most commonly used treatment illnesses. Phototherapy entails placing the baby under a certain type of light since this has been known to assist in breaking down bilirubin in the body hence facilitating easy expulsion.

This therapy is harmless, painless and extremely useful for bilirubin concentration decrease, therefore it is widely used in treating neonatal jaundice. In addition to newborn care, phototherapy is used in other skin and liver diseases in other groups of patient clientele.

Common Causes of Jaundice and Related Conditions

Jaundice and other conditions treated with Conventional Phototherapy often stem from:

• Neonatal Jaundice: A feature in newborns this is because the liver is not well developed and hence cannot break down bilirubin as required.

• Blood Type Incompatibility: Rh or ABO incompatibility between the mother and the baby leading to the destruction of the baby’s red blood cells.

• Premature Birth: Jaundice is common in premature babies because the liver of these babies is not fully developed.

• Liver Disorders: Such as hepatitis or obstruction of bile duct for bilirubin in the body.

• Genetic Disorders: Inborn errors of metabolism including Gilbert’s syndrome that results in high levels of Bilirubin.

Thus, timely diagnosis and treatment are critical so that a child would not develop a severe condition known as kernicterus, which occurs in severe bilirubin levels.
