INTRODUCTION: Phototherapy has reduced the need for exchange transfusion (ET) to manage jaundiced neonates. Hence there are concerns about increased risk of complication due to lack of opportunity to sustain skills in performing ET. We studied the complications and treatment outcomes of neonates treated for jaundice with ET.
METHODOLOGY: A retrospective observational study was conducted from June 2013 to June 2020 in a tertiary care hospital in India. All neonates treated with ET for jaundice were included.
RESULTS: Twenty-eight neonates underwent 31 ET during the study period. Their mean gestational age and birth weight were 37 weeks and 3200 g, respectively. Predisposing factor for jaundice observed were Coomb's positive status (11), hepatosplenomegaly suggesting hemolysis (3), cephalhematoma (2) and birth asphyxia (1). Abnormal neurological status before ET was seen in seven neonates. Adverse clinical events that happened during or within 8 h after ET were desaturation (4), tachycardia (3), tachypnea (2), bradycardia (2), shock (2) and temperature instability (2). One neonate developed acute kidney injury after ET and required peritoneal dialysis. Abnormal lab parameters observed during or within 8 h after ET were hypocalcemia (20), anemia (8), hypokalemia (7), hypernatremia (3), thrombocytopenia (3) and hyperkalemia (2). Post ET sepsis was seen in five neonates: two had only blood culture positive sepsis, two had bone and joint infection and one had liver abscess.
CONCLUSION: The neonates undergoing ET are at high risk of developing complications which may be life threatening. Hence careful monitoring during the procedure is needed.
