About This Presentation

Slide 1 - B.I.N.D. Center at Pennsylvania Hospital (Bilirubin Induced Neurologic Dysfunction) University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Pre-discharge bilirubin screening to prevent adverse outcomes of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia Vinod K. Bhutani MD and Lois H. Johnson MD
Slide 2 - Does hyperbilirubinemia damage the brain of healthy full term infants ? .……………….Newman and Maisels 1990 Clinics in Perinatology Evidence-based Question Raised in 1990
Slide 3 - Potential Adverse Clinical Outcomes for Newborn Jaundice Death: respiratory failure (n = 6 in Pilot KI Registry) Acute bilirubin encephalopathy Post-icteric sequelae (neuromotor / auditory) Subtle manifestations (extra-pyramidal and central processing disorders) CLINICAL SPECTRUM Bilirubin Induced Neurologic Dysfunction (BIND) BIND CENTER - Pennsylvania Hospital
Slide 4 - Adverse Outcomes and Concerns for Patient Safety with Newborn Jaundice Bilirubin levels in newborns discharged as healthy from well baby nursery: What is the evidence that the TSB level is high? What is the evidence that the TSB is harmful? What is the evidence that the TSB level is safe? How sure are we that these levels will be safe? Can we manage the hyperbilirubinemiac infant with a safer, kinder, gentler approach ?
Slide 5 - Settling for a Reduced Occurrence of Extreme Hyperbilirubinemia TSB level >20 mg/dl 99th percentile ( <72hrs) TSB level >25 mg/dl 99.99th percentile ( >72hrs) AHRQ: National Quality Forum A “NEVER EVENT” TSB level >30 mg/dl >99.99th percentile Thresholds for timely and effective interventions in a safe setting
Slide 6 - BIND CENTER - Pennsylvania Hospital “Vigintiphobia”: Pediatricians’ Fear of 20 Questioned for Lack of Evidence Before 1970: Exchange transfusion was the standard of care for TSB >20 mg /dl. After 1984: Treatment with phototherapy for a TSB of 15 mg/dl to prevent progression to 20mg/dl questioned as unnecessary .
Slide 7 - BIND CENTER - Pennsylvania Hospital PILOT KERNICTERUS REGISTRY Confirmed Cases of Acute Kernictrerus (Voluntary Reporting) “Healthy” Term and Near Term Infants Born in 34 States PICK and Partners AAP updates guidelines New cases are still being reported
Slide 8 - Sources of Data for Kernicterus Registry Papers and abstracts dated 1991-2002 Medical-legal consultations Contributions from colleagues Detailed information available in 80 babies Only one case in babies born before 1984 Total of 106 cases in Registry as of December 2002
Slide 9 - Matrix Used to Assess Cases Reported to Pilot Kernicterus Registry Comprehensive review of care provided in US nurseries to 60 infants admitted by 7 days age with acute bilirubin encephalopathy: Johnson, Brown, Bhutani: Journal of Pediatrics April 2002
Slide 10 - Preliminary Root Cause Analysis Loss of concern of neurotoxic potential of bilirubin Limitations on visual recognition of jaundice as index to initiate evaluation or estimate severity Failure to recognize severity of hyperbilirubinemia corrected for age in hours Failure to ensure follow-up 1-2 days after early discharge Delay in intensive or timely intervention pre-discharge or at readmission Johnson, Brown, Bhutani: Journal of Pediatrics April, 2002
Slide 11 - Occurrence of Kernicterus In babies who are jaundiced In babies who have hyperbilirubinemia Increased in babies with co-morbidities: hemolysis, prematurity, hypoalbuminemia, asphyxia / blood-brain barrier disruption, infection, hypoglycemia, decreased binding affinity of albumin to bilirubin, etc There is no evidence for a specific bilirubin level that causes neuro-toxicity (likely to be influenced by postnatal age, duration, rate of rise and presence of co-morbidities).
Slide 12 - Kernicteric Death End stage coma due to acute bilirubin encephalopathy Respiratory failure Intractable seizures Postmortem-global bilirubin staining of the brain and tissues Jones (1954), Van Pragh (1961), Volpe (2001).
Slide 13 - Clinical Progression of Acute Bilirubin Encephalopathy Intermediate Lethargy + Irritability Semi-coma Seizures Late Sleepy + poor feed Early Mental Status Hyper or Hypotonia depending on arousal state Mild Nuchal / Truncal arching Markedly Increased or Decreased Opisthotonus Bicycling Muscle Tone Shrill Inconsolable Hi pitched Cry Clinical Evaluation Slight Decrease As proposed by Johnson, Brown et al. (abstract in Pediatrics, 1999)
Slide 14 - Post-Kernicteric Sequelae in Infancy(Inclusion criteria: two or more signs) Extrapyramidal movement abnormalities Athetosis, dystonia, muscle tone abnormalities Gaze abnormalities Especially upward gaze Auditory disturbances Neuropathy with central processing disorders Enamel dysplasia of deciduous teeth (Intellectual compromise is rare) Jones (1954), Van Pragh (1961), Volpe (2001).
Slide 15 - Attitudes regarding the toxic potential of bilirubin “Jaundice does not cause brain damage in healthy babies” “Kinder and gentler approach to jaundice” “Do not worry all babies get jaundice” “You can easily get rid of jaundice with sunshine” “Bilirubin is an anti-oxidant” Data from Pilot Kernicterus Registry: Johnson, Brown and Bhutani
Slide 16 - The Under-reporting of Occurrence of Kernicterus No national reporting system Lack of diagnosis on death certificate Lack of diagnosis on discharge diagnosis Limited and voluntary reporting to the Pilot Kernicterus Registry Delayed recognition of babies with signs of acute bilirubin encephalopathy who are admitted to emergency rooms Data from Pilot Kernicterus Registry: Johnson et al
Slide 17 - What is the clinical evidence that this level of TSB is safe? Does hyperbilirubinemia damage the brain of healthy full term infants ? .……………….Newman and Maisels 1990

Slide 23 - How sure are we, as pediatricians, that this level will be safe for an otherwise healthy newborn?
Slide 24 - Are Moderate* Degrees of Hyperbilirubinemia in Healthy Term Neonates Really Safe for the Brain? Soorani-Lunsing et al: Pediatric Research 2001, 50: 701-705 COMMENTARIES: Pediatric Research: 2001 (50): 674-677 Neonatal Jaundice: Continuing Concern and Need for Research: Ohlsson, A (Editor) Just when you thought it was safe..Hintz, S & Stevenson, DK Bilirubin and Neurological Dysfunction- Do we need to change what we are doing? Maisels, MJ & Newman, TB Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia and the Potential Risk for Subtle Neurologic Dysfunction. Bhutani, VK * “Moderate” is defined by bilirubin levels >17.5 mg/dl
Slide 25 - Pilot Kernicterus Registry (Johnson, Brown, Bhutani) Based on readmission data available in 102 Babies 0.25 - 0.6 TSB rise/d TSB rise/hr At 95th percentile (24 to 72 hrs age): TSB rise = 0.2 mg/hr
Slide 26 - Unbound Bilirubin and Risk of BIND Unbound bilirubin levels (UB Analyzer) of 0.8 mcg/dl and above have been shown to predict the BAER abnormalities described for Stage IB or worse of the BIND Score by H. Nakamura and colleagues in Japan. B/A ratio may predict risk in healthy babies >72 hours age. It is less predictive of toxicity in infants with compromised albumin- bilirubin binding. These factors may not be evident clinically.
Slide 27 - Defatted Human Albumin y = AeBx r = 0.9766 Unbound Bilirubin by the Peroxidase Technique Ahlfors, 1996
Slide 28 - TSB Levels Associated with different B:A Ratios Risk of BIND Adapted from Ahlfors C. Criteria for Exchange Transfusion . Pediatrics 1994;93:448
Slide 29 - How does this affect my practice ?
Slide 30 - Clinical Vectors Visual Jaundice: poor vector of severity Bruising: recurrent useful clinical risk factor Risk Score for “Dangerous” levels (Newman et al) TcB: Maisels et al, Bhutani et al, Rubaltelli et al TSB: Bhutani et al, Alpay et al, Kaplan et al TSB and ETCO : Stevenson, Fanaroff, Maisels et al (Multinational Jaundice Study Group) Others under study: unbound bilirubin Preventive Management: Pre-discharge Prediction for Severe Hyperbilirubinemia
Slide 31 - Objective Assessment of Newborn Jaundice Use of jaundice as a clinical predictor to assess severity of bilirubinemia and predict subsequent hyperbilirubinemia is not evidence-based (AHRQ report). It is also impractical and unsafe Bilirubin (mg/dl serum) % of Observations
Slide 32 - Prediction and Prevention of “Dangerous” Hyperbilirubinemia Predictors for TSB >25 mg/dl (73/51,387; 0.14%): Early Jaundice…………………….Odds Ratio = 7.3 Family history:…………………….Odds Ratio = 6.0 Exclusive breast feeding………..Odds Ratio = 5.7 Bruising……………………….……Odds Ratio = 4.0 Asian race………………………….Odds Ratio = 3.5 Cephalhematoma…………………Odds Ratio = 3.3 Maternal age…………………….…Odds Ratio = 3.1 Lower Gestation…………….…….Odds Ratio = 0.6/wk Conclusions: Prevention may require a closer follow-up than presently recommended by AAP Newman TB et al: Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 2000; 154: 1140-7
Slide 33 - Clinical and Epidemiological-based Evidence of Risk Factors for “Dangerous” Hyperbilirubinemia Supposedly a baby who is not at (clinical or epidemiological) risk for hyperbilirubinemia is: A white, anglo-saxon, female neonate, who is exclusively formula-fed, who has no bruising, does not have a sibling with jaundice and in whom there is no ABO / Rh, minor blood group incompatibility or other evidence of hemolysis. Case report of Kernicterus in one such baby (Pilot Kernicterus Registry)

Slide 36 - Hour-Specific Bilirubin Nomogram High Risk Bilirubin Tract (age in hrs) Low Risk Bilirubin Tract (age in hrs) Rate of TSB rise = 0.2 mg/hr) Pediatrics: 1999
Slide 37 - Pilot Kernicterus Registry (Johnson, Brown, Bhutani) Based on readmission data available in 102 Babies 0.25 - 0.6 TSB rise/hr At 95th percentile (24 to 72 hrs age): TSB rise = 0.2 mg/hr TSB Range 21.5 - 42 31.5 - 50 27 - 49 21.5 - 50 2.5 – 3 4 5 2.5 to 5 In Days
Slide 38 - My bilirubin level is 9.2 mg and it is way too high because I am only ….17 hours old
Slide 39 - Practical Strategy: Plot Bilirubin on Nomogram  9.2 mg/dl at 17 hrs age 17
Slide 40 - Practical Strategy: Predict and Target Follow-up  32 mg/dl at 66 hrs age 9.2 mg/dl at 17 hrs age  Rate of TSB rise = 0.47 mg/dl  17
Slide 41 - Dynamic Changes in Bilirubin Load Rapid Rate rise (>0.20 mg/dl/hr) by increase to >95th percentile on the bilirubin nomogram Bilirubin Production Bilirubin Elimination Bilirubin Load intravascular hemolysis: ETCO bruising / cephalhematoma: Visual Exam & ETCO enterohepatic circulation: Clinical Risk factors UGT1A1 polymorphisms: Ethnic Risk Factors

Slide 48 - Incidence of “severe” hyperbilirubinemia: Well babies with TSB > 30 mg/dl (data not collected as formal investigation)
Slide 49 - Pooled comparison of incidences of extreme hyperbilirubinemia: Pre-discharge screening strategy
Slide 50 - Pooled Analysis of incidence of extreme hyperbilirubinemia: Pre-discharge screening strategies
Slide 51 - Early-onset severe hyperbilirubinemia: TSB >75th percentile at <72 hours age Clinical Management: Clinical history for hemolytic disorders Clinical evaluation (for acute bilirubin encephalopathy) Serum Albumin: B:A ratio End-tidal carbon monoxide testing (if available) Evaluation for hemolysis (+Type and Coombs, G-6PD etc) Rate of rise of bilirubin (“jumping tracks” on nomogram) BAER by ALGO-2 screening technique (if feasible) Intensive Phototherapy: clinical and objective evaluation Exchange Transfusion: failure of Intensive phototherapy
Slide 52 - Late-onset severe hyperbilirubinemia: TSB >95th percentile at >72 hours age Clinical Management Clinical history / counseling re feeding / stooling patterns Clinical evaluation (for acute bilirubin encephalopathy) Serum Albumin: to measure B:A ratio Evaluation for hemolysis (including G-6PD) BAER by ALGO-2 screening technique abnormal B:A (> 7.0 mg/g) ratio) abnormal clinical exam TSB >97th percentile (> 18 - 22 mg/dl) Intensive Phototherapy / Exchange transfusion consideration based on clinical and laboratory evaluation
Slide 53 - Need for “Crash-Cart” Management of “Dangerous” Hyperbilirubinemia Assess for clinical signs of Acute Bilirubin Encephalopathy in a jaundiced newborn with any neurological symptoms Immediate transcutaneous measure of bilirubin and send a blood sample to laboratory for stat results If symptomatic, start intensive phototherapy (conduct procedures while baby is under lights) and admit directly intensive care nursery Arrange for an expeditious exchange transfusion for any signs of bilirubin encephalopathy and perform it promptly
Slide 54 - System-based Policies and Procedures Hospital / Nursing policy and procedures Provide parental education materials Jaundice evaluation by nurses: a clinical vital sign checked periodically and corroborated by TcB /TSB Assess and promote optimal lactational nutrition. Track, evaluate for hemolysis and follow infants on bilirubin nomogram at high or intermediate risk (>75th percentile track). Pre-discharge TcB or, TSB (at metabolic screen). Risk-based post discharge bilirubin follow-up. Prospectively manage parental education, expectations and inform of potential options / risk. Peer-Review of babies with TSB >25 mg/dl
Slide 55 - System-based Policies and Procedures Involves MDs, Parents, Nurses, Administrators Bilirubin measurement within 48 hours of birthing System-based program to ensure follow-up for those at risk for significant hyperbilirubinemia (>95th percentile) Peer-review and surveillance for extreme hyperbilirubinemia (TSB levels > 20 to 25 mg/dl) Family education of potential risks of jaundice

Slide 57 - At Pennsylvania Hospital
Slide 58 - PREVENTION OF KERNICTERUS TSB level >30 mg/dl: “never event” Kernicterus is a “Never Event” AHRQ: National Quality Forum List Universal bilirubin screening endorsed by CDC, NIHCHD, JCAHO, March of Dimes, NAAN, TSB level >25 mg/dl: is a “close call” and a threshold for intensive interventions Predictable by pre-discharge screening
Slide 59 - PUBLIC HEALTH MESSAGES “We” should “worry” about neonatal jaundice Neurotoxicity of bilirubin is confounded by: a) early postnatal age (<72 hours), b) prematurity (<38 weeks GA), c) “jumping” upwards across percentile tracks; d) rate of TSB rise of (>0.20 mg/dl/hr) Kernicterus can occur in babies discharged as healthy (TSB levels >95th percentile) Unmonitored hyperbilirubinemia is UNSAFE
Slide 60 - PUBLIC HEALTH GOALS…….. # 1: Clinical expectations: Prevention, Early Diagnosis, Effective and Safe Treatment # 2: Public Health expectations: Lowered incidence of “extreme” (TSB >25 mg/dl) hyperbilirubinemia # 3: Societal expectations: “Zero Tolerance” of kernicterus in otherwise healthy babies # 4: Family expectations: a SAFE experience with newborn jaundice
