Through a prospective cohort study of healthy term and near-term infants, the study tries to truly reflect the epidemiology, intervention status, and outcomes of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and the cost. Hopefully, by improving the quality of management of neonatal jaundice,we can explore and obtain a healthy term and near-term jaundice management model suitable for China's national condition, which can eventually reduce the incidence rate of neonatal severe hyperbilirubinemia and bilirubin encephalopathy.
Eight hospitals in China will participate in the study, which aims to decrease the incidence of severe hyperbilirubinemia.
