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.

The determination 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 (conjugated) fraction. Both direct and indirect bilirubins are increased in the serum with hepatitis. 1. INTENDED USE:

liver’s ability to conjugate and excrete bilirubin into the bile; this leads to hyperbilirubinemia, and sometimes, frank jaundice; As expected—other diagnostic markers of hemolytic anemia are present—such as: as: a) increased LDH; b) decreased haptoglobin; and c) increased bilirubin …
Causes of Elevated Bilirubin Levels In Adults
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 ...
