Abstract: Objective: To investigate the major causes and current management of hyperbilirubinemia in full-term
newborns in a general hospital. Methods: The clinical and laboratory data of 1,455 full-term newborns with hyperbilirubinemia in the department of neonatology were collected for retrospective and descriptive analysis. Univariate
logistic analysis was used to compare the risk factors for hyperbilirubinemia in these two groups (the mild-to-moderate and severe jaundice groups). The impact of feeding models (breastfeeding, formula feeding, and mixed feeding)
on bilirubin metabolism in inpatients was analyzed. The severity of hyperbilirubinemia was compared in inborn and
outborn groups. Results: The top three major causes of hyperbilirubinemia in hospitalized full-term newborns were
