Systematic review of global clinical practice guidelines for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia
Objective Hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common clinical symptoms in newborns. To improve patient outcomes, evidence-based and implementable guidelines are required. However, clinical guidelines may vary in quality, criteria and recommendations among regions and countries. In this study, we a...
