Neonatal jaundice
Risk Factors:
1) Isoimmune hemolytic disease
2) G6PD deficiency
3) Asphyxia
4) Significant lethargy
5) Temperature instability
6) Sepsis
7) Acidosis
8) Albumin <3 g/d (if measured)
Diagnosis
DIRECT- conjugated, post- liver
obstructive:
- congenital biliary atresia
- neuroblastoma
- cholesterol cysts
CELLULAR:
- hepatitis
- galactosemia
- sepsis
- TORCHS
- tyrosinemia
- alpha 1 antitrypsis deficiency
INDIRECT- unconjugated, pre-liver
- sepsis
- hypotension
- rH/ ABO incompatibility
Work-Up
1) �Tbil
2) �Dbil
3) �CBC (for hemolytic anemia)
4) �Coombs or T&S (mom & baby)
5) �?blood resorption
6) �?septic
7) �?Decreased gastric motility
8) �Physiologic/breast milk (none @ birth presents 1st week)

*Total serum bilirubin (mg/dL)
Low Risk: >=38wk + no risk factors
Med Risk: (>=38wk + risk factors) or (35-37 wk and no risk factors)
High Risk: 35-37wk + risk factors
**Option #2: Provide conventional photoRx at home with levels 2-3mg/dL lower without RF.
