Jasprova J, Dal Ben M, Vianello E, Goncharova I, Urbanova M, Vyroubalova K et al. Conclusion:Įven with intensive phototherapy increasing spectral power by increasing the irradiated body surface area, the efficacy of phototherapy is improved. The results were still significant after adjustment for confounding. The percentage decreases of total serum bilirubin after 12 h of double vs single phototherapy were (mean (95% confidence interval (CI))) 39% (37 to 42) vs 30% (27 to 32), respectively ( P<0.001). The mean irradiance was 64.8 μW cm −2 nm −1 from above and 39 μW cm −2 nm −1 from below. Study Design:Įighty-three infants with gestational age ⩾33 weeks and uncomplicated hyperbilirubinemia were randomized to either double ( n=41) or single phototherapy ( n=42) for 24 h. We investigate whether double phototherapy reduces total serum bilirubin concentration faster than single light during intensive phototherapy with high levels of irradiance using light-emitting diodes.
