Abstract

Evaluation for hyperbilirubinemia is an integral part of newborn care. They anticipate that with concerted efforts by multiple investigative teams, neonatal bilirubin assessment and management programs will become more evidence-based, more effective, less expensive, more focused on neonates likely to benefit from phototherapy, and better able to prevent bilirubin-induced toxicities.
