The prevalence of neonatal jaundice ranges from 60,000 to 70,000 per 100,000 neonates. The prevalence of the neonatal jaundice decreases as the gestational age of the neonate increases. The prevalence of neonatal jaundice is more in the East Asian, American Indian, and Greek races.

Overview

The prevalence of neonatal jaundice ranges from 60,000 to 70,000 per 100,000 neonates. The prevalence of the neonatal jaundice decreases as the gestational age of the neonate increases. The prevalence of neonatal jaundice is more in the East Asian, American Indian, and Greek races.

Epidemilogy and Demographics

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of neonatal jaundice ranges from a low of 60,000 to high of 70,000 per 100,000 neonates in the first week of birth. [1]
  • The prevalence of severe hyperbilirubinemia ranges from a low of 8,000 to high of 9,000 per neonates in the first week of birth.

Age

  • The prevalence of neonatal jaundice decreases as the gestational age increases.[2]

Gender

  • Neonatal jaundice affects male more than female neonates.

Race

  • The prevalence of neonatal jaundice is more in the East Asian, American Indian, and Greek races.
  • Black races are less likely to develop jaundice. Black neonates presenting with jaundice most probably have G6PD deficiency disease.
