The Incidence and Risk Factors of Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia in Term and Late-preterm Chinese Infants

Summary

Thirteen hospitals in China will participate in the study, which aims to provide data on serum bilirubin levels in the first 168 hr after birth in term and late-preterm neonates, and estimate the incidence of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and the underlying causes.

We hypothesize that the study can be value in identifying and implementing strategies for risk reduction.
