Plain-language summary
Neonatal Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase(G6PD) Deficiency is one of the significant reason for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and even irreversible bilirubin encephalopathy.The neonates may be attacked due to acute infection, eating beans or exposure to oxidative drugs, etc.
The main clinical manifestations are hemolytic anemia, and the resulting hyperbilirubinemia. When bilirubin is pretty high in body, bilirubin may spread into brain, and thus cause nervous system damage, and severely affect the prognosis of neonates. Therefore, monitoring and early intervention of jaundice has important significance to prevent further aggravation of jaundice and certain sequelae. Phototherapy and exchange transfusion are mainly suitable methods for severe hyperbilirubinemia, however, patients need to be hospitalized. Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine for jaundice. Many large sample and multicenter clinical studies show that the positive efficacy of Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid in the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is exactly confirmed.
The purpose of this study is try to detect the treatment effect of Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid on indirect bilirubin in neonates with G-6-PD enzyme deficiency and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Try to provide scientific theories for Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid to treat neonates with G-6-PD enzyme deficiency and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
The change(umol/L) from baseline of total bilirubin(umol/L) will be calculated and finalized
Timeframe: Every 24 hours during dosing, for around three days.(Typicall the dosing will be stopped once the bilirubin is below 100umol/L)
. Neonates with congenital malformation of liver and gallbladder;
. Neonates with asphyxia, hypoxia, acidosis, sepsis, high fever, low temperature, low protein, low blood sugar, etc. which may lead to bilirubin encephalopathy;
. History of oxidation drug exposure(e.g. honeysuckle bath)
