متن کاملA comparison of transcutaneous and total serum bilirubin in newborn Hispanic infants at 35 or more weeks of gestation.

We evaluate the accuracy of TcB measurements in assessing jaundice in Hispanic neonates by using total serum bilirubin (TSB) measurements as the reference standard and determine the TcB level that can be u...

Apart from 4 limitations a...
