ESTIMATE METHOD OF SCLERAL ICTERUS SYMPTOM

摘要

FIELD: medicine. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention provides operative diagnostics of bilirubin metabolic imbalance provided unavailability of laboratory research. The method is based on correlation of sclera colouring and total bilirubin content in blood serum simulated as a scale developed with precise step-by-step variation of colour RGB-channels relations as 14 numbered cells with various yellow shades including from light yellow to dark brown with bilirubin value range is assigned to its cells by extrapolation method. The cell corresponding to sclera colourings within its maximum expressiveness is marked to detect total bilirubin content range in blood in mkmol/l according to number of the scaled cell. ^ EFFECT: application of specially developed scale and interpretation of obtained results by certain algorithm allows for considerable reduction of time expenditures and material inputs for diagnostics of bilirubinemia level in comparison with laboratory methods with improving effectiveness and accuracy in comparison with the conventional method of field survey. ^ 2 tbl, 2 dwg
