- high levels of unconjugated bilirubin (in blood); residual hepatic capacity to conjugate bilirubin so a mixed hyperbilirubinemia is found ( occurs because not all of conjugated bilirubin can be excreted by the damaged hepatocytes causing it to exit cells into blood ( increased conjugated bilirubin in blood (equal to increase of unconjugated form)

accompanied by increased direct bilirubin, or . accompanied by clinical symptoms of liver injury or evidence for hepatic decompensation . In the controlled clinical studies, one patient receiving eltrombopag experienced Grade 4 elevations in serum liver test values, worsening of underlying cardiopulmonary disease, and death.
Causes of Elevated Bilirubin Levels In Adults
The assessment of direct bilirubin is helpful in the determination of hepatic disorders. The increase in the total bilirubin associated with obstructive jaundice is primarily due to the direct fraction. Both direct and indirect bilirubin are increased in the serum with hepatitis.

the urine will contain 0-0.2 of the direct bilirubin. The initial manifestations of jaundice will be seen at levels greater than 2.5. The first symptoms are yellowing of the skin and then yellowing of the sclera. Increase in unconjugated bilirubin – results from overproduction, impaired uptake, or impaired conjugation

The only remaining abnormal results were a high direct bilirubin and high normal total bilirubin levels (Taylor et al., 2008). Identify any lab blood test results in Table 38.2 that might explain the patient’s deteriorating neurologic function. High serum levels of bilirubin could be contributing to this client’s neurological deterioration.

When excessive levels of bilirubin accumulate in the blood (> 2.5 or 3 mg/dL) this chemical accumulates in sclera and colors it yellow; it also accumulates under the tongue and ultimately in the skin, causing a yellow or even green color (bilirubin can be oxidized with time to a more green pigment); the visible excess bilirubin in a patient is ...
