Abstract Purpose of Review Hyperbilirubinemia is commonly seen in neonates. Though
hyperbilirubinemia is typically asymptomatic, severe elevation of bilirubin levels can lead to …

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most frequent diagnoses made in neonates. A
high level of unconjugated bilirubin that is unbound to albumin is neurotoxic when the level …

METHODS: From 499 642 infants born at≥ 35 weeks' gestation in 1995–2011 followed
for≥ 60 days, we excluded 1773 that exceeded exchange transfusion thresholds and 1237 …

Objective To develop a statistically rigorous, hour-specific bilirubin nomogram for newborns
based on a very large data set; and use it prospectively as a replacement for the 1999 …

We have previously shown that the phototherapy of hyperbilirubinemic neonates using blue-
green LED light with a peak wavelength of~ 478 nm is 31% more efficient for removing …

Importance Cycled (intermittent) phototherapy (PT) might adequately control peak total
serum bilirubin (TSB) level and avoid mortality associated with usual care (continuous PT) …

To determine the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic phototherapy compared with
conventional phototherapy for the prevention of neonatal jaundice. We included clinical …

Background. Hyperbilirubinemia is prevalent and protracted in preterm infants. This study
assessed the pattern of hyperbilirubinemia in preterm infants in Ethiopia. Methods. This …

Objective To evaluate the frequency, age at phototherapy (PT) initiation, and duration of PT
use in infants 230/7 to 346/7 weeks of gestation in two neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) …

Objective To investigate the association between phototherapy (PT) and the development of
necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. Study design A …
