    Effectiveness of LED phototherapy compared to conventional phototherapy to accelerate the reduction of bilirubin levels in neonates with jaundice
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017-12-03) Ellizca Medrano, Keyla Beatriz; Ucharima Huallcca, Cinthya Jackelin; Rivera Lozada de Bonilla, Oriana
    Objective: To systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of conventional phototherapy compared to LED phototherapy in reducing bilirubin levels in neonates with jaundice. Materials and Methods: A systematic review synthesizing the results of the research. The search was restricted to full-text articles, and the selected articles underwent critical reading using the GRADE evaluation system to identify the level of evidence. Of the 10 studies, 80% (8/10) were controlled clinical trials, and 20% (2/10) were systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Results: Of the total articles analyzed, 30% of the studies demonstrate that LED phototherapy was significantly more effective in treating hyperbilirubinemia compared to conventional phototherapy, and 70% show that there is no significant difference between the use of LED and conventional phototherapy in reducing bilirubin, as the results obtained during phototherapy treatment for neonates with jaundice were similar, providing the same chances of total serum bilirubin reduction. Conclusions: The research reviewed shows that 3 studies demonstrate that LED phototherapy is more effective than conventional phototherapy in reducing bilirubin in neonates, and 7 studies demonstrate that there is no significant difference in bilirubin reduction between the two types of phototherapy.
