Bilirubin in infants dangerous level
CPQCC
Hyperbilirubinemia is thought to be dangerous to preterm infants but treatment of ‘high’ bilirubin is based on incomplete data. The use of the CNN database will allow a better understanding of the pattern of hyperbilirubinemia in these ‘at-risk’ infants and provide further strategies for developing evidence-based guidelines.

Bilirubin levels on about half of normal newborn infants will get as high as 10 or more. A normal adult level of bilirubin is less than 1. Jaundice, or hyperbilirubinemia, is only dangerous at very high levels, at which point bilirubin could deposit in the brain and cause severe and irreversible brain damage (kernicterus).
