Trial summary

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia elongates hospital stay and may require treatment. The investigators noticed that bilirubin levels were higher among infants of primipara mothers than among multipara mothers. Read more about this study

About this study

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia elongates hospital stay and may require treatment. The investigators noticed that bilirubin levels were higher among infants of primipara mothers than among multipara mothers. As this data is dichotomic and easy to produce, and may influence the maintenance, the investigators decided to find out if primiparity is a risk factor for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. The investigators intend to collect data from patient files during one year, and compare the bilirubin levels and length of stay between newborns to primipara mothers and multipara mothers.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperbilirubinemia, Neonatal, run by Hillel Yaffe Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Length of stay of the infant (time frame: 2 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03329040, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Sep 2018.
