A bilirubin level exceeding 12 mg/dl for the full term infant is suggestive of more than normal physiology and would be considered hyperbilirobinemia (Behrman). 4. In the studies conducted by Newman TB, neonatal bilirubin exceeding 10 mg/dl seems to have little effect on IQ (Intelligent Quotient), neurological abnormalities and hearing loss.

Bilirubin is a pigment that is released from the red blood cells. The liver helps break down the bilirubin so it can be removed from the body in the stool, but when the rate of breakdown exceeds the rate of elimination, it leads to buildup of bilirubin. Sometimes special lights are used on infants whose levels are high. This is called

Most other studies of readmitted infants found an incidence of rebound to significant levels (i.e. requiring repeat phototherapy) around 1% or less. Therefore, in these patients who are readmitted to the hospital for routine neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, it is unnecessary to keep them in the hospital longer to recheck a rebound level.

Hyperbilirubinemia is a common cause for brain death and encephalopathy in newborns. Over 9% of healthy term infants develop hyperbilirubinemia with serum bilirubin levels above 15 mg/dl.4. Jaundice in newborn is quite common affecting nearly 70% of term and 80% of preterm neonates during first week of life.5
Bilirubin - Wikipedia
Preterm infants are metabolically immature and at higher risk of BIND at lower bilirubin levels than their term counterparts. Early use of phototherapy to eliminate BIND and minimizing exchange transfusion are the goals of treatment in premature babies.
