Objective. To examine the association between neonatal bilirubin levels and subsequent
neurodevelopmental outcome. Design. Prospective cohort study. Setting. 12 US medical …

Hyperbilirubinemia (HB) occurs in 90% of preterm newborns. Moderate HB can induce
acute neurological disorders while severe HB has been linked to a higher incidence of …

Background High bilirubin level is toxic to developing brain and auditory system but the
current debate surrounds the toxicity of bilirubin in healthy term infants. Methods …

Objective: We studied maximum length sequence brainstem auditory evoked response in
term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia to further our understanding of hyperbilirubinemia on …

The primary goal of the evaluation and management of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in
premature infants is to prevent acute and chronic bilirubin-induced neurotoxicity, a spectrum …

Objective: To determine the initial Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response (BAER)
abnormalities in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and the possible reversibility of abnormal …

Abstract In 1994 the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended more liberal rules for
the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia in healthy term newborns. Yet, the safety of moderate …

The aim of this study is to identify clinical, etiologic, and laboratory factors that potentiate
adverse outcome of hyperbilirubinemia among term and late preterm neonates in logistic …

Figure 1. Risk designation of term and near-term well newborns based on their hour-specific
bilirubin values. The high-risk zone is designated by the 95th percentile track. The …

Background Whether hyperbilirubinemia suppresses electrophysiological activity of the
neonatal auditory brainstem remains to be investigated. Aim To determine whether …
