Description

We measured end-tidal carbon monoxide levels in 50 jaundiced newborns readmitted for phototherapy between ages 54 – 244 hours. The median end-tidal carbon monoxide level was 1.55 ppm suggesting that hemolysis is not the primary contributor to the hyperbilirubinemia in many readmitted newborns.
