History Earliest work on jaundice from Baumes-1785, and
Hervieux-1847
Kernicterus was first described by Johannes Orth, 1875He postulated that jaundice might have hematologic
originsHe noted that the brain in jaundiced adults wasn’t
affected
Christian Schmorl coined the term in 1904Translated, Kernicterus means jaundice of the “kern”
or nuclear region of the brain

Pathophysiology
RBCs are broken down
Bilirubin is an end product of heme metabolism
Bilirubin is conjugated in the liverEnzyme: UDP-Glucuronyl Transferase
Conjugated bili is excreted via the GI tractEnzyme: Beta-Glucuronidase can
unconjugate bili in the small intestine and bili is reabsorbed
![Page 9: HYPER-BILIRUNEMIA. History Earliest work on jaundice from Baumes-1785, and Hervieux-1847 Kernicterus was first described by Johannes Orth, 1875](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649ccc5503460f94995fcf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pathophysiology of Newborn Hyperbilirubinemia
Relatively high hematocrit; more cells to break down
UDP-Glucuronyl Transferase is not fully functional until 3-4 months of life
Relative starvation state and slow transit time, especially in breastfeeders
Breastmilk contains beta-glucuronidase; enterohepatic circulation is increased

Pathophysiology
UCB is lipophilic and crosses the Blood-Brain BarrierIn vitro, free UCB will not precipitate out
of solution unless in the presence of a polar lipid membrane
In theory, only free UCB crosses, albumin-bound does not.
BBB of infants is more permeable than adults, and acidosis causes it to be even more permeable.

Pathophysiology…cont
UCB has an affinity for the basal ganglia, hippocampus, cranial nerve nucleiMechanism is widely studied, but still
unknown
UCB interrupts metabolism in glial cells and causes apoptosis of neuronsExact mechanisms are unknown, but
definitely separate pathways.Age of the cell is inversely proportional to
susceptibility

In pre-term infant, bilirubin levels may peak as high as 10-12mg/dl at 4-5 days and decrease slowly over 2-4 weeks.
Newborns produce twice as much bilirubin as do adults, because of:

Breast feeding associated Breast feeding associated jaundicejaundice--earlyearly milk intake
few calories
Enterohepatic shunting
In the intestine the enzyme (B-glucuronidase is able to convert conjugated bilirubin into unconjigated form reabsorbed by the intestinal mucosa transported to the liver
![Page 19: HYPER-BILIRUNEMIA. History Earliest work on jaundice from Baumes-1785, and Hervieux-1847 Kernicterus was first described by Johannes Orth, 1875](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649ccc5503460f94995fcf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hemolytic diseaseBreast-milk jaundice (late onset)
Blood antigen incompatibility cause hemolytic or large numbers of RBCs where liver is unable to conjugate and excrete excess bilirubin from hemolysis.
Caused by possible factors in the breast milk that prevent bilirubin conjugation, or less frequent stooling.
![Page 20: HYPER-BILIRUNEMIA. History Earliest work on jaundice from Baumes-1785, and Hervieux-1847 Kernicterus was first described by Johannes Orth, 1875](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649ccc5503460f94995fcf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Dx: serum level of bilirubin.
Normal values: Unconjugated bilirubin= 0.2 to 1.4 mg/dl.
Clinical dx depends on:TSB (Total serum bilirubin level) time on onset for the S&S GA at birth age in days post delivery. Family Hx and mother’s Rh factor evidence of hemolysis feeding methodInfant physiological status
Diagnostic evaluation

Laboratory Measures
There is currently no lab value that correlates well with the development of kernicterus; there seem to be many factors that lead to its development
Guidelines for initiating therapy for hyperbilirubinemia currently include the variables of UCB and age of baby. There are no good guidelines for preterm infantsAn unconjugated bilirubin level of 25 or less in TERM,
HEALTHY babies has not been correlated with kernicterus
Pediatrics 1995; Case reports of Term, Healthy, Breastfed babies—UCB levels associated with clinical Kernicterus were 39-50
It has been hypothesized that measuring UNBOUND UCB can be correlated, but not well supported as of yet

The damage occurs when the serum concentration reaches toxic levels and crosses the BBB.

The yellow staining in the brain of a neonate is known as kernicterus.
There is a coronal section of medulla on the left and cerebral hemisphere on the right demonstrating kernicterus in deep grey matter of hemisphere and brain stem.
Kernicterus is more likely to occur with prematurity, low birth weight, and increased bilirubin levels.

-Serum bilirubin level can’t predict the risk for brain injury alone, other factors put the newborn at high risk for encephalo-pathy are:Metabolic acidosis low serum albumin levels Intracranial infection as meningitis increased blood pressure any conditions that may increase metabolic demands for oxygen or glucose, (e.g. fetal distress, hypoxia, hypthermia, hypoglycemia).
S&S:
CNS depression or excitation, Lethargy and decreased activity, Irritability, Hypotonia and seizures…. May progress to defness, cerebral palsy, or mental retardation.

Prevention: Treatment of HyperbilirubinemiaPhototherapy
Initiate based on UCB level and baby’s ageIsomerizes UCB to Lumirubin, soluble in water and
excreted via the kidney
Exchange transfusionInitiate if phototherapy fails, repeat as neededIncidence of kernicterus has dropped since the
advent
Sn-MesoporphyrinInhibits Heme-oxygenase, which is the rate-limiting
enzyme in heme catabolism.Only case reports thus far, where exchange transfusion
was refused

Phototherapy ………( blue fluorescent light)
Bilirubin by photoisomerization soluble lumirubin (best in 1st 24-48hrs)
What are the major nursing
intervention at this stage?
Pharmacological action of phenobarbital are:Increase bilirubin conjugation
&hepatic clearance of the pigment in the bile
2. Increase albumin level thus increasing binding sites
Feeding Feeding ( ( intestinal motility, establish Nintestinal motility, establish N..Flora, Flora, ) ) hepatic shuntinghepatic shunting..

Some infants may also benefit from a fiberoptic pad underneath them, especially in the breastfed infant who is encouraged to feed 8-12 times in 24 hours.
Serum bilirubin levels above 25 mg/dL or higher at any time is a medical emergency and the infant should be evaluated immediately for exchange transfusion
