Summary

The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of a systematic extra intravenous fluid supplementation during phototherapy in comparison to a fluid supplementation due to short term demand in preterm infants.

Conditions

  • Hyperbilirubinemia

Interventions

OTHER

extra fluid/iv fluid supplementation during phototherapy

The study group received an extra intravenous fluid intake of 20% of the total fluid demand per 24 hours of NaCl 0,9% during each two hour period of phototherapy (12h total per day). The extra fluid intake was interrupted during the 12 hours break of phototherapy.
