What is Understanding Neonatal Jaundice Causes about?

Neonatal jaundice occurs in many newborns as their liver is not fully developed to process bilirubin, which is produced from the breakdown of red blood cells. It is a common condition that can become dangerous if bilirubin levels rise too high, as bilirubin can damage the brain. Genetic factors influence individual risks for severe jaundice by affecting how the body processes and excretes bilirubin. Doctors evaluate jaundiced newborns to identify those at risk of dangerous bilirubin levels.
