Episode description
Recently, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) revised clinical guidelines on hyperbilirubinemia and how to treat infants born at at least 35 weeks. Although it is common for many newborn infants to experience jaundice, it is important for physicians and primary care providers to understand and monitor newborn babies to ensure they don't develop hyperbilirubinemia. In this episode, we are going to discuss what primary care providers should know about these new guidelines and how they are different than the previous guidelines.
Today I am happy to be speaking with Dr. Christine Gold.
