Abstract

Our approach for risk management of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia to prevent kernicterus--one of the most easily preventable causes of neonatal brain damage--includes management of certain high-risk clinical situations, identification of systems failure, and suggestions for implementation strategies to enhance patient safety.
