Classification of Jaundice
Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (predominantly indirect bilirubin)
 • Increased bilirubin production (eg, hemolytic anemias, hemolytic reactions,
Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia ... posthepatitis hyperbilirubinemia ... reactions) Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia
Approach to Neonatal Jaundice

Causes of pathologic hyperbilirubinemia can be classified as due to (1) increased bilirubin
