Interpret all bilirubin levels according to the infant's age in hours. Recognize that infants at less than 38 weeks' gestation are at higher risk of developing hyperbilirubinemia and require closer surveillance and monitoring. Perform a systematic assessment on all infants before discharge for the risk of severe hyperbilirubinemia.

Early treatment can decrease the number of infants with elevated serum bilirubin levels. However, the USPSTF found inadequate evidence that treating elevated bilirubin levels in term or near-term infants to prevent severe hyperbilirubinemia resulted in the prevention of chronic bilirubin encephalopathy.

Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (physiologic jaundice) – common in first week of life, due to increased bilirubin load as well as decreased hepatic cell uptake of bilirubin and deficient hepatic conjugation. Pre-term infants are more susceptible to kernicterus (neurologic damage) due to …

There were 104 newborns recruited into this study, 69 males (66.3%). 80 infants (76.9%) were born at 37 or more weeks of gestation age. Serum bilirubin levels were between 20 – 24.9 mg/dL in 65 infants (62.5%). 94.2% of infants had reached their peak bilirubin levels after 24 hours of age, and 29.8% reached their peak after 96 hours.

And phototherapy effectively reduced bilirubin levels in breast fed newborns with hyperbilirubinemia than mixed –fed newborns.7. A study was conducted in Olabisi Onabanjo University in Nigeria in 2008 to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of community health workers regarding Neonatal Jaundice and its management.

However, if serum cord bilirubin levels are more than 2.0 mg/dL, the infant has a 25 percent chance of developing subsequent hyperbilirubinemia.1 . In 1989, Knudsen A found that if cord bilirubin was below 20 mumol/L, 2.9% became jaundiced as opposed to 85% if cord bilirubin was above 40 mumol/l.

Although increased bilirubin levels occur in most newborns and are usually benign, high levels have the potential to lead to seizures or cause irreversible brain damage resulting in permanent visual, muscular or other disabilities and even death. Early screening and measurement of bilirubin levels, while the newborn is in the hospital, can lead ...

Cases were newborns with peak total serum bilirubin levels greater than or equal to 428 micromol/L (> or =25 mg/dL) (n = 73). Controls were a random sample of newborns from the cohort with peak bilirubin levels less than 428 micromol/L (
