49 jaundiced, nonimmunized newborn infants with a birth weight of more than 2,000 g were given phototherapy with white light for more than 36 h. The average period of treatment was 61 h. 24 infants received 250 mg agar at the beginning of each meal at 3-hour intervals during phototherapy. 25 infants received phototherapy only. Serum bilirubin levels were decreased similarly in both groups. It is concluded that ingestion of agar does not supplement the effect of phototherapy.
49名出生体重超过2000克的黄疸、未免疫的新生儿接受了超过36小时的白光光疗。平均治疗时间为61小时。24名婴儿在光疗期间每隔3小时每餐开始时服用250毫克琼脂。25名婴儿仅接受光疗。两组血清胆红素水平下降情况相似。结论是摄入琼脂并不能增强光疗效果。
