HUAMBO PANDURO, Mary Claudia; RAMIREZ-ORTEGA, Andrea P.; ROLDAN-ARBIETO, Luis e VELA-RUIZ, José M.. Associated factors with jaundice requiring phototherapy: A case-control study in a hospital in Peru. Rev. Fac. Med. Hum. [online]. 2024, vol.24, n.1, pp.85-91. Epub 29-Mar-2024. ISSN 1814-5469. http://dx.doi.org/10.25176/rfmh.v24i1.6340.
Objective:
The aim was to identify the factors linked to jaundice that necessitates phototherapy.
Material and Methods:
An observational, analytical, and retrospective case-control study was conducted. The medical records of 212 patients aged 0 to 7 days from the neonatology service at Hospital Carlos Lanfranco La Hoz were reviewed, divided into 106 cases (with phototherapy) and 106 controls (without phototherapy).
Results:
Preterm neonates showed a significant association with an OR: 5.526; 95% CI (2.038-14.981), P= 0.001; and ABO incompatibility had an OR: 4.373, 95% CI (1.934-9.889), P= 0.001.
Conclusions:
The study concludes an association between preterm neonates, ABO incompatibility, and the necessity for phototherapy.
