Umbilical cord blood bilirubins, gestational age, and maternal race predict neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.

Umbilical cord blood bilirubins, gestational age, and maternal race predict neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.

OBJECTIVE:No validated biomarker at birth exists to predict which newborns will develop severe hyperbilirubinemia. This study's primary aim was to build and validate a prediction model for severe hyperbilirubinemia using umbilical cord blood bilirubins (CBB) and risk factors at birth in neonate...
