805 narrative summaries from pregnancy, delivery and neonatal period were examined to find out factors which might influence physiological jaundice in the newborn period. The normal range of bilirubin is: 70% of all newborn babies have maximum bilirubin levels below 10 mg/100 ml, while 2.6 exceed 16 mg/100 ml as maximum. Under special conditions i. e. prematurity, small for date babies, male sex, very young and very old mother bilirubin is higher that normal. EPH-gestosis, high birth weight, stress during delivery, very small and very big placenta are followed by diminished bilirubin levels. These findings are discussed in detail.

This randomized controlled study was conducted to evaluate the effects of telephone-assisted breastfeeding monitoring on physiological jaundice, exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months, colic, breastfeeding success, and breastfeeding self-efficacy. Breastfeeding and infant care training were given to pregnant women by video calls (N = 54). Video call counseling was provided to the mothers in the intervention group (n = 27) every day for the first week after discharge and weekly until the 24th week, and the control group (n = 27) was only telephone called in follow-up weeks.

Bilirubin (BR), with diverse physiological functions and health implications, is a vital biomarker related to liver diseases such as jaundice and hepatitis. It is generally tested by blood. Sweat wearable devices provide a noninvasive way to monitor BR but face challenges in stability and selectivity, and acquiring sufficient sweat is difficult for sedentary individuals.
