bilirubin production (hemolysis) is responsible. Hepatic jaundice occurs when either the removal of bilirubin from the blood or conjugation of bilirubin by the liver is defective. This can have UNIT: Total and Direct Bilirubin (continued)

Results. Direct bilirubin was more than 2.0 mg/dl in only six infants (0.6%). Five had multisystem injury from hypoxic ischemic events. One also had congenital cytomegalovirus and another had a postoperative liver hematoma. Weekly multichem profiles would have detected these abnormalities. No ...
Bile duct obstruction or damage to hepatocellular structure causes increases in the levels of both conjugated (direct) and unconjugated (indirect) bilirubin in the circulation. Hyperbilirubinemia can be classified as follows: Prehepatic Jaundice: Diseases of prehepatic origin with predominantly unconjugated...

shows that the Tasso+ has a very good correlation (>0.99) for ALAT, ASAT, alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin compared to venous blood. A correlation >0.95 was found for albumin, chloride, enzymatic creatinine, glucose, magnesium and phosphate. The venous concordance across ...
