Show more >Jaundice due to unconjugated bilirubin is an everyday condition in the neonatal period because it results from the adaptation of bilirubin metabolism at this time of life. Hyperbilirubinemia has a potential neurotoxicity and although it most often resolves spontaneously, it can lead to acute and sometimes chronic encephalopathy. The latter condition is called kernicterus and induces severe and irreversible neurological sequelae. This rare complication is still reported in all countries throughout the world even if severe hyperbilirubinemia can be prevented and critical points points of failure in jaundice management are identified. Jaundice management are identified, jaundice is the most frequent symptom during the first days of life and after discharge from the maternity ward but also the major cause of readmission in the 15 first days of life. Therefore in the past 20 years, numerous countries have written national practical guidelines for the management of neonatal jaundice using various methodologies. Most of the time, the guidelines resulted from expert consensus more than from an evidence-based argument. The Société française de néonatologie created a working group to provide the first French clinical guidelines for the management of jaundice in the near-term newborn (35 weeks and more). They were written following a physiopathological argument and taking into account both clinical risk factors for severe hyperbilirubinemia and interindividual variability in vulnerability to bilirubin neurotoxicity. Practical tools were also developed to facilitate implementation of the guidelines and are also included.Show less >
