Abstract
In healthy full-term neonates without haemolytic disease, hyperbilirubinaemia is not associated with neurological, auditory or cognitive disorders later in life. Therefore, the new threshold levels of hyperbilirubinaemia at which further diagnosis and treatment are indicated, are higher than the former ones.
