Jason PY - 2021 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Neonatal jaundice occurs when total serum bilirubin is in excess of 5 mg/dL and progresses in a head-to-toe fashion as levels increase. Most cases of physiologic (< 12 mg/dL) jaundice are self-limited without sequelae and appear on the 2nd or 3rd day of life, peaking between the 3rd and 5th day. Visual estimation of serum bilirubin level is not accurate enough to determine jaundice severity. Preterm infants may peak later.
